The factory installed RMU in each system uses a standard Web browser for remote library access. The
supported browsers are:
• Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.0 and above
• Netscape Navigator version 4.01 and above.
You can do the following by means of the RMU:
• Update RMU firmware
• Access the library status
• Make configuration changes
• Access the library Operator Panel
• Update the library controller firmware
• Retrieve library command and error logs
• Use the ADIC website to access Scalar documentation
The RMU supports Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) version 2.0 and acts as an SNMP
server. The RMU acquires Tape Alert 3.0 compatibility information from the library over the serial interface
port and sends that information to a SNMP server. The RMU also detects a power loss and generates a
SNMP trap for notification.
