About adding media type mapping entries
Applies to API robots only. Robot types are described in a different topic.
The default media type mappings may not provide the wanted mappings. If not, add robot-specific media mappings to the vm.conf file on the host on which you run the NetBackup Administration Console.
Information about the vm.conf file is in the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume II:
