AWS Storage Gateway User Guide

Using Your Tape Gateway

8. Close the

Robot Inventory

window.

9. In the

Media

node, expand the

Robots

node and choose

TLD(0)

to show all virtual tapes that are

available to your robot (medium changer).

Note

If you have previously connected other devices to the NetBackup application, you might

have multiple robots. Make sure that you select the right robot.

Now that you have connected your devices and made them available to your backup application, you are

ready to test your gateway. To test your gateway, you back up data onto the virtual tapes you created

and archive the tapes.

Backing Up Data to a Tape

You test the tape gateway setup by backing up data onto your virtual tapes.

Note

You should back up only a small amount of data for this Getting Started exercise, because there

are costs associated with storing, archiving, and retrieving data. For pricing information, see

Pricing

on the AWS Storage Gateway detail page.

To create a volume pool

volume pool

is a collection of virtual tapes to use for a backup.
