Is there any HP (or non HP) Linux supported
(and mtx compatible) tape libraries with 100+Gb per tape (SDLT, Ultrium) and 7 or more tapes im magazine ?

Hello,

I would say that most (if not all) of them are supported. I use a small 6 tape cabinet and that works fine and I don't see any reason why larger ones should not work. Maybe the author of afbackup can help you. Or just look at his web page for compatibility. And ofcourse the mtx web site...

MAG,
Milo

But I talking about 1/9 or 2/20.
There is no info about them on mtx site
