HP OpenView Storage Area Manager simplifies and automates management of your storage resources and infrastructure. It manages both tape and disk, direct- and network-attached storage, including heterogeneous devices across multivendor products distributed worldwide. Its central management allows you to effectively monitor and manage storage and storage service availability, performance, usage, cost, and growth, helping you to gain control of your enterprise storage and optimize your resources.

Library and Tape Tools
HP StorageWorks Library and Tape Tools (L&TT) is a premiere tape and magneto-optical storage device and diagnostic tool.
To provide continued service to our customers, HP provides the L&TT software application. L&TT is a diagnostic tool that is designed to aid in the installation and maintenance of HP tape and magneto-optical storage products. L&TT includes several features designed for use by both HP storage customers and trained service personnel. The key features include:
• Diagnostic tools for tape and magneto-optical devices designed for simple troubleshooting
• Multiple options for retrieving and updating both the latest firmware and the most current version of L&TT

Management agents
Many management agents are able to keep track of nearline storage devices through the use of in-band polling. In-band polling is done by requesting data from the storage device in-band, or in the same path as data travel. Typical SCSI commands that are used to gather this data are Inquiry and Log Sense commands.
