STORAGE TAPE ANALYTICS USER INTERFACE PROVIDING LIBRARY HEALTH ANALYSIS AND MONITORING ALERTS

A method of accessing tape storage analytics data from tape libraries. The method includes generating user interfaces on client devices. Each user interface includes a first screen displaying graphics or analysis tables based on the tape storage analytics data. The method includes receiving user input selecting the displayed graphics or an item within a cell of the analysis table and modifying the user interface to display a second screen, which presents a subset of the tape storage analytics data corresponding to operation of at least one of one or more tape libraries or library components (e.g., robots and elevators), tape drives, and tape media within the tape libraries or, alternatively, activities involving any of a combination of these components. The receiving and modifying steps are repeated to navigate between data corresponding to a tape library, a tape drive, and media and to operations involving these and other tape library components.
