Label dialog box

Use the Label dialog box to label new media or relabel a volume already used by NetBackup.

If you select multiple volumes, they all must contain identical robot-residence information. If you label a volume, the data on the media cannot be restored or imported.

For many types of drives, you may not be able to cancel a label job from the Activity Monitor.

The Media Server field is the name of the media server that controls the drive to write the label.

The Verify label before performing operation option verifies that the media in the drive is the expected media.

To overwrite any existing labels on the media, do not select Verify media label before performing operation.

If you selected Verify media label before performing operation and the actual volume label does not match the expected label, the media is not relabeled.
