A peripheral device in which a large number of cartridges or reels of magnetic tape are stored in cells in a storage matrix is Automated tape library.
automated tape library (ATL) A peripheral device in which a large number of cartridges or reels of magnetic tape are stored in cells in a storage matrix. Any chosen cartridge can be transferred mechanically to a tape transport where it can be accessed by the host system, and then returned to the same or another cell.
An automated tape library (ATL) allows you to use system-managed storage for mountable tape cartridges. Mount requests for these cartridges are handled by a robotic tape cartridge handler. An ATL provides management facilities for tape volumes, but does not manage the data sets contained on those tape volumes.
