Goal

How long does an ACSLS audit take?
Will an audit rescan the entire library?

Solution

New libraries will not rescan the hardware and physically look at each individual tape, they only verify what the library has in memory. Older libraries will check what is physically in the library. The table below is a table that can be found in the ACSLS manual showing what average audit times are.

 

LSM Type Component Average Audit Time (Best and Worse)
4410 LSM 3 - 8 hours
9310/L5500 LSM 1.2 - 6 hours
9360 LSM 5 minutes
97xx/L700/180 LSM 1 minute
SL500 LSM 3 minutes
SL8500 LSM 5 minutes
SL3000 LSM 5 minutes
