The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Hello Jim,

A short while back I thought I found an open source VTL that emulated an LTO tape library. I’ll see if I can find it again.
As far as I understand, the base foundation is already built into the kernel. This is, backing stores like real devices (disk and tape), disk partitions, and files in a file system. Plus, transport and device presentation like FC, and iSCSI.
Additional software is mostly to provide a coherent and easy way to turn and switch the many knobs tucked away in /sys and /proc, for making it work in thee desired way, and configure things at reboot time from a configuration file.
I know about targetcli, status unknown. Was a nice, tree oriented text interface to interactively build the desired configuration.
There are more options, such as tgt, istgt, open-isns, etc.
Contrary, I don't know about any OSS or free "install and enjoy" solution for having a VTL on Linux. Not that this would be something I would see as a road block. :-)
