Quantum Scalar i6000 User’s Guide 419
Chapter 11
Configuring Access to
StorNext
Certain licensed features (EDLM and Active Vault) can use an external
application to perform partition policies. To configure access to an
external application, you must first install an application programming
interface (API) client plug-in, and then configure the library to
communicate with the external application.
The API client plug-in is a Quantum-provided plug-in that allows the
library to communicate with a supported external application (such as
StorNext Storage Manager). The API client plug-in must be installed
before you can configure library access to the external application.
You can install as many API client plug-ins as necessary.
The same API client plug-in may be used for multiple features.
This chapter covers:
• Step 1: Confirming the External Application is Supported on

• Step 2: Installing/Removing the Scalar i6000 API Client Plug-in on

• Step 3: Configuring External Access on page 422
