IMPORTANT:
When the defaults are restored, the Library will rediscover and renumber the tape drives from the
bottom of the Library up. If a tape drive was added between two other tape drives since the last time
the drives were discovered, that tape drive and the ones above it will be renumbered. You might need
to update the configuration of the backup application when tape drives are renumbered.
