Updating the NetBackup volume configuration with a robot's contents

Use the procedure in this topic to update the EMM database with the contents of a robot.

To update the volume configuration with a robot's contents

If necessary, insert new volume(s) into the robotic library.
In the NetBackup Administration Console, in the left pane, expand Media and Device Management > Media > Robots.
Select the robot you want to inventory.
On the Actions menu, select Inventory Robot.
In the Robot Inventory dialog box, select Update volume configuration.
Note:
If you preview the configuration changes first and then update the EMM database, the update results may not match the results of the preview operation. Possible causes may be the changes that occur between the preview and the update. Changes can be to the state of the robot, to the EMM database, to the barcode rules, and so on.
To change the default settings and rules that NetBackup uses to name and assign attributes to new media, click Advanced Options.
See About configuring media name and attribute rules.
To inject any media that is in the media access port before the update operation, click Empty media access port prior to update.
Click Start to begin the inventory update.
