Tape library management
HSC software acts as the host interface in MVS and VM tape environments. It is designed to work in tandem with other tape management software.

Centralize management
HSC software enables a centralized mainframe tape storage model that allows you to ease administrative burdens and manage more with less.

Reduce costs
Library resource sharing reduces capital equipment, maintenance and operating costs while simplifying library management.

Increase utilization
Centralized management helps you optimize the use of your library resources.

Allocate resources dynamically
HSC software allows supported applications to dynamically allocate library resources without hard-partitioning tape slots

Increase availability
Serviceability and redundancy features minimize scheduled and unscheduled downtime.

Pricing can vary based on the server quantity, storage capacity or options. Pricing is for software only. Contact the "How to buy" help desk at 1-800-275-4785 (01-303-673-2800) for more information.

Expert Library Manager (ExLM®) software
makes the most of automated storage systems with rules-based library content management. It works with HSC software, Virtual Tape Control System (VTCS) software and other tape management systems to manage library content and provide robust reporting on physical and virtual volumes.

Expert Performance Report (ExPR™) software
automates performance reporting and simplifies management of manual tape systems, automated tape libraries and the Virtual Storage Manager® (VSM®) system. It gathers precise and timely information about tape usage and performance, so you can see who is using what resources, when and how efficiently.

Extended High Performance Data Mover (ExHPDM) software
maximizes the effectiveness of the tape subsystem and speeds backup and restore processes, allowing fast data transfer to and from tape. The software, which resides on an MVS host, allows single tape cartridges to accept output from multiple hosts simultaneously.

LibraryStation™ software
enables the use of HSC software to centrally manage SCSI-attached automated tape libraries. To eliminate the need to physically move data, LibraryStation software uses a client/server approach to automate MVS operations.
