Default and allowable media types
Applies to API robots only. Robot types are described in a different topic.
The default media types on the Media Type Mappings tab are the media types provided by each robot vendor.
The following tables contain the default and allowable media types for the API robots as follows:
NetBackup ACS type robots: Table: Default and allowable media types for ACS robots
The following items provide information to help you understand the tables:
The first column of each table shows the vendor's media type.
The second column of each table shows the default media type in NetBackup.
The third column shows the media types to which you can map the defaults. To do so, first add the allowable mapping entries to the vm.conf file.
Some map entries are not allowed. For example, you cannot specify either of the following map entries for ACS robots:
ACS_DD3A = DLT ACS_DD3A = HCART4
The following table shows the default media types and the allowable media types for ACS robots.
