INVENTORY_FILTER entry in vm.conf
The following configuration entry applies to NetBackup servers:
INVENTORY_FILTER = robot_type robot_number mode value1 [value2 ...]
Used to filter the robot inventory results in ACS robot types. Add this entry to the configuration file (vm.conf) on the NetBackup server on which the inventory operation is invoked. This entry is read and interpreted on the host on which vmcheckxxx and vmupdate run.
Note:
This entry may be required for an ACS robot and the ACS library software host with an STK Library Station. Newer versions of STK Library Station allow robot inventory commands to function correctly so filters are not required.
robot_type can only be ACS.
robot_number is the number of the robot as was configured in NetBackup.
mode is BY_ACS_POOL for ACS.
Example
INVENTORY_FILTER = ACS 0 BY_ACS_POOL 4 5
