  • 1.  Can get LTFS LE working with my TS3100 library

    Posted Tue December 27, 2022 09:31 AM
    Greetings!
    I have a tape library TS3100, with two LTO5 tape drives. I connected the library and the drives to my computer and everything shown up normally in device manager. ITDT also picked everything up correctly.
    However, I can not install LTFS LE on my computer, I prompts "LTFS requires IBM tape driver", while LTFS SDE works just fine.
    I am on Windows server 2022 and driver 7.0.0.8.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Please check on SSIC if your environment is supported. I don't think Windows 2022 will be supported with such old hardware.

    I believe the problem is Spectrum Archive Library Edition is not supported on Windows 2022.  See the support matrix whch can be found where you downloaded the  product on IBM's FixCentral: IBM_Spectrum_Archive_LE_V2.4_Support_Matrix_2451_10503.pdf
