3584-L52/D52/L32/D32 Ultrium Scalable Tape Library
The 3584- L32, D32, L52 and D52 are strategic choices for IBM LTO tape automation for the iSeries, AS/400e,
RS/6000, and other popular open systems. The IBM 3584 libraries use the multipath architecture to allow
homogeneous and heterogeneous open systems servers to share the library robotics.
The 3584 Ultra Scalable Tape Library Model L52 offers 64 to 287 slots and up to 12 IBM LTO Ultrium 2 Tape
Drives. It provides strategic price/performance in open system environments where the tape automation
requirements are satisfied by one to 12 drives or a library capacity of up to 115 TB (with 2:1 compression) or 57
TB native data.
The 3584 Ultra Scalable Tape Library Model L32 offers 141 to 281 slots and up to 12 IBM LTO Ultrium Tape Drives.
It provides strategic price/performance in open system environments where the tape automation requirements are
satisfied by one to 12 drives or a library capacity of 56 TB (with 2:1 compression) or 28 TB native data.
The 3584 Ultra Scalable Tape Library Model D52 Expansion Frame can be added to L22, L32 or L52 base frames
to add storage or drive capacity. Up to 15 Model D52 frames can be added to each base frame. Each 3584 Model
D52 frame has an LTO cartridge capacity of up to 440 slots and support for up to 12 IBM TotalStorage LTO Ultrium
2 Tape Drives with an incremental reduction of storage slots for each set of four drives. Data capacity for each D52
using Ultrium 2 data cartridges is 79 to 88 TB native and 158 to 176 TB using 2:1 compression.
The 3584 Ultra Scalable Tape Library Model D32 Expansion Frame can be added to the L32 base frame in order
to add storage or drive capacity. Up to 5 Model D32 frames can be added to each base frame. Each 3584 Model
D32 frame has an LTO cartridge capacity of up to 440 slots and up to 12 IBM TotalStorage LTO Ultrium Tape
Drives with an incremental reduction of storage slots for each set of four drives. This provides a total library
capacity of up to 72 IBM LTO Ultrium 1 or Ultrium 2 drives, or up to 2481 slots, holding up to 992 TB (with 2:1
compression) or 496 TB native data.
The 3584 Ultra Scalable Tape Library Models L52 and D52 provide the functions of the L32 and D32 frames but
in a reduced footprint.
Multipath architecture allows the 3584 to be partitioned into up to 192 logical libraries. Logical libraries allow the
3584 library robotics to be shared between homogeneous or heterogeneous applications with each logical library
having its own separate and distinct drives, storage slots, and control paths. Logical libraries can also be used for
separating different type of tape drives and cartridges, for applications that do not support mixing drives in the
same logical library. Multipath is standard on the 3584 library.
