Hello,
I found very few issues and details for setting up networker and ACSLS in
google, etc. and I hope that the question is appropriate for this list.
We have a License for SunStorEdge EnterpriseBackup 7.2 aka Legato Networker
for Solaris with the options Turbopak and Autochanger/16 slots. We had
before a 7 DLT Autochanger Stacker (with Solstice Backup 5.1) and now we
want to setup Networker with Storagetek Libraries, which are controlled by
an ACSLS server.
I have tried SUN Solstice Backup 7.2 + patch 116832-02 and also Networker
7.2.1 from the legato.com Webpage and installed all provided packages
(Client, Storage Node, Storage Server, etc), but a jbconfig fails with
"unable to connect to ACSLS server acsls".
- The Networker licenses are okay and valid. Probably the 16 slots license
will not be sufficiant for a big >600 slot SILO, but I thought that
Networker could at least recognise the Library.
- This happens also with the evaluation license.
- I can ping the ACSLS Server.
- The ACSLS Server is Version 7.0 and is also in use with SUN SAMFS.
- There are currently no library drives connected to the Server. Only one
local DLT700 is available.
What could I do to to make Networker connect to ACSLS?
* Do I need to reconfigure the ACSLS Server?
* Do I need some other Legato License to make it work with ACSLS?
* Bonus Question: Is it possible to use Legato Networker and SAMFS with
ACSLS at the same time (but of course with different tape pools)? :-)
If the tape drives are connected to some other Server, I guess I will need
some Storage Node License too...
Details for "jbconfig":
root@demohu06:~# jbconfig
1) Configure an AlphaStor/SmartMedia Jukebox.
2) Configure an Autodetected SCSI Jukebox.
3) Configure an Autodetected NDMP SCSI Jukebox.

Supported Silo types for this system are:
1) ACSLS Silo (StorageTek)
2) DAS Silo (ADIC/EMASS/Grau)
3) 3494 Silo (IBM)
Enter the number corresponding to the type of silo you are installing:
Choice? 1

What name do you want to assign to this Silo device? stk0
Name of the host running the ACSLS software? acsls
Pathname of the STL library for the ACSLS silo? [/usr/lib/nsr/libstlstk.so]

There appears to be something incorrect about your jukebox
installation. Please consult your device's documentation
to help you troubleshoot your installation.
jbconfig: error, stl_open failed - unable to connect to ACSLS server acsls (stl_open error 2)
Thanks,
Bernhard
