About SCSI reserve on drive paths

NetBackup lets you configure exclusive access protection to tape drives so that other host bus adaptors (HBAs) cannot control the drives during the reservation. The Enable SCSI Reserve host property configures the protection for each media server.

See Media properties.

More information about how NetBackup reserves drives is available in the NetBackup Administrator's Guide, Volume II:
