Ah well. Since it's friday and I'm tired and fed up with
work for today I just got to go and take some pictures of
my own... How about this hardware then:
http://www.ifm.liu.se/~peter/bakis
The robot is a Sun StorEdge L11000 (a badge-engineered ATL P3000)
with 6 DLT7000 (can take up to 14) drives and 326+12 tape slots.
It weights in at around 1300 pounds (591kg) :-)
(The last picture isn't of that robot but of our departmental
backup robot (four Overland Neo 2000 LTO-1 robots stacked together
as one big logical robot).
The L11000 is used by the Lysator ACS (students computer club) here
at Linköping University for the backups. It's controlled by Bacula
and my PJC program that I wrote when I got fed up with the
buggy MTX piece of crap...
Btw, I'm looking for testers of PJC so I can make it work on more
Unix variants (it currently supports Linux and Solaris, but I've only
tested it under Solaris so I'm looking for Linux users willing to test
it).
Included in the PJC distribution is a "pjc-changer" script that can
be used as a replacement for the Bacula-included "mtx-changer" script.
PJC can be downloaded from:
ftp://ftp.lysator.liu.se/pub/unix/pjc
