Two options:
- use differential SCSI to connect the library to the servers
- convince a FC/SCSI router/gateway to work with the library (sometimes
not so easy job)

        Subject:        Sharing optical libraries in SAN


Hi TSM-ers
I have one question about library sharing in SAN.
In doc is always mentioned SCSI tape libraries sharing. Is it possible to
share in SAN also optical libraries (jukeboxes)?
I can not find on IBM web any informations about devices supported for
library sharing.
According to my knowledge there should be no difference between SCSI tape
libraries and optical jukeboxes.

Does somebody know?
