About the device mapping files
NetBackup uses several files to determine which protocols and settings to use to communicate with storage devices. NetBackup also uses the files during device discovery and configuration.
The device mapping files are available for download from the following URL:
https://support.cohesity.com/s/article/article-100040093
The download packages contain the following files:
external_robotics.txtexternal_types.txtReadme.txt
In some cases, you can add support for new or upgraded devices without waiting for a release update. To do so, download the current device mapping files package from the Cohesity Technical Support website and configure NetBackup to use that file. For instructions, see the Readme.txt file that is supplied with the device mapping file package.
Note:
The contents of the device mapping files do not indicate support for any of the devices, only the ability to recognize and automatically configure them.
