(Optional) In the
Recovered Partition Name
box, type a new name
for the recovered partition. (The default name is the original
partition name.)
3 Click Apply .
The partition and its cartridges are recovered on the target system. All
data stored on the partition at the time the snapshot was saved is
available.
After recovering the partition, you must add tape drives to the partition.
The tape drive type must be identical to the original partition so that the
media is compatible. In addition, you must map the devices before the
VTL partition is accessible.
If the partition contains media, you will only be able to select the
highest capacity tape drive for that media type. For example, if the
partition contains SDLT600 tape cartridges, you will only be able to
select DLT-S4 tape drives when mapping devices to the recovered
partition.
Note: When a VTL partition is recovered on a target system, a new
serial number is created for the partition.
