New Features and Enhancements

This release contains no new features or enhancements.

General Information

• The standalone LMC client is not provided by default. Contact Quantum
Service for details.

• JRE is not required with the standalone LMC client.

• If media is encrypted on an IBM drive using Library Managed Encryption
(LME), the library will initially report the media as being unencrypted when
it is actually encrypted. The encryption status of the media will be properly
reported once the media is re-mounted in the drive.

• To help maintain system integrity and for marketing purposes, Quantum
regularly collects system information through automatic emails. These
emails contain configuration and status information only, and do not
contain any customer data stored on the system. To disable this function:

1 Log on to your library.

2 Go to Setup > System Setting > Physical Library.

3 In the Send Usage Statistics area, select the Disable radio button.

4 Click OK.

• The Web client places a cookie on the user’s computer to provide the last
user’s credentials upon login. The cookie only collects the user’s credentials
to facilitate login, and does not collect any other user data.
