4.
If the operation does not require updating the volume configuration, Media Manager
uses the media type defaults for TLH robots when it creates its report.
“Example Show Contents Reports for API Robots” on page 156 shows an example of
this report.
5. If the operation requires updating of the volume configuration, Media Manager maps
the TLH media types to the Media Manager media types as explained in “Media Type
Mappings Tab (Advanced Options)” on page 187.
The Update Volume Configuration report for an ACS robot is similar to the figure
shown for an TLH robot in “Procedure To Update the Volume Configuration” on
page 163.
Robotic Inventory Filtering
If your site has many volumes configured, but you only want NetBackup to use a subset
of them, you may be able to use inventory filtering.
The IBM Library Manager maintains the concept of a volume category, which can be used
to classify volumes into pools, including pools by application.
On the Media Manager server where the inventory request will be initiated, you can add
an
INVENTORY_FILTER
entry in the
vm.conf
file. The format for this entry follows:
INVENTORY_FILTER
=
TLH
robot_number
BY_CATEGORY
value1
[
value2
...]
where
◆
robot_number is the robot number.
◆
value1 is a filter value of type IBM category (if filter_type =
BY_CATEGORY
).
◆
value2 is a second filter value (up to 10 filter values are allowed).
For example:
INVENTORY_FILTER = TLH 0 BY_CATEGORY 0xcdb0
