Robot and Drive Configuration Examples

NetBackup Media Manager System Administrator’s Guide for Windows
◆
Media for all devices is configured in a common volume database, which is located on
server eel.
◆
The Robot Number is 0 in all three cases. This is required because the three servers
refer to the same physical robot. In this case, robotic control is on host eel.
◆
Robot Drive Numbers correlate to the physical drive assignment within the robot.
◆
When you add volumes, add them to host eel because the volume database is on that
server.
Configuration on the Windows Server eel

system levels) where a changer driver is in control of the
robot, selecting a robot device sets the changer name in the
dialog.
