XenData SXL-5000 Archive SystemStandard Windows File System

The XenData system virtualizes the RAID, LTO library and off-line LTO cartridges, presenting them as a single volume:

+ + = disk

Externalized LTO

XenData SXL-5000 Archive SystemBroad Application Compatibility

File/folder interface means the solution works with most applications – from MAMs to Windows Explorer to Finder.

No need to load any special software on client computers.

Supports multiple simultaneous applications. Multiple LTO cartridge groups can be configured for each application by mapping folders to specific cartridge groups.

XenData SXL-5000 Archive SystemDesigned for Networks

NAS architecture makes it easy to deploy.

RAID cache delivers high performance in a network.

Interfaces via 1 GigE or 10 GigE.

Supports CIFS/SMB or FTP.

XenData SXL-5000 Archive SystemSupport Windows, Mac and FTP Clients – plus local transfers

Windows, Mac and FTP clients are natively supported.

Locally the archive volume appears as a logical drive letter.


Fast Archiving

At the speed of RAID.

The system does not wait for LTO cartridges to be mounted.


Fast Restoring

The system restores queues of files in the shortest possible time.

Restore requests are processed to tape order to minimize unnecessary tape movement.


Partial Restore Capable

Allows a clip to be restored from LTO without need to restore the whole file.


Built-in Data Protection

The system will automatically create extra backup copies of LTO cartridges for offsite retention.


Industry Standard Security

The archive server integrates fully with the Microsoft security model based on Active Directory.


Prevents Vendor Lock-In

LTO cartridges are written in either the exchange LTFS format or the open standard TAR format.

The use of a standard format prevents vendor lock-in – proprietary formats make it very costly to ever switch to another vendor.


Manage Unlimited Externalized Cartridges

The system manages any number of externalized cartridges, providing an unlimited total capacity. There are no license fees for externalized capacity.

When offline files are accessed, the system prompts with email alerts and on-screen notifications, identifying the cartridge that should be imported back into the system.

A range of different reports helps manage the entire archive including all externalized cartridges.
