Updating the device configuration by using the wizard

It is recommended that you use the Device Configuration Wizard to update the NetBackup device configuration when hardware changes occur.

Update the configuration for all storage device changes. For example, if you add or delete a robot or drive or add a new SCSI adapter in a host, update the configuration.

Do not update the device configuration during backup or restore activity.

To update the device configuration by using the wizard

  1. In the NetBackup Administration Console, select Media and Device Management > Devices.
  2. From the list of wizards in the Details pane, click Configure Storage Devices and follow the wizard instructions.
