VXA Tool

VXATool is a diagnostic program used for configuring, troubleshooting, and upgrading firmware in the VXA tape drives with the SCSI, ATAPI and FireWire interfaces.
Note:

• ASPI Layer:
  On Windows 98 and NT systems, the VXATool requires the installation of an ASPI layer. During installation of the VXATool, you will be prompted if ASPI should be installed as well.
• Tape Device Driver:
  If you are using a FireWire VXA drive, the VXATool requires that a tape device driver be loaded on the system. Refer to your backup application for information on whether or not it installs a tape device driver. Otherwise, a Windows tape device driver is available for download from www.exabyte.com. A tape device driver is not necessary for the VXATool to detect and access SCSI or ATAPI VXA drives.
