About running the wizard to update your configuration after a device change

This topic is a NetBackup Enterprise Server topic.

If you run the wizard to update your configuration, the wizard shows the same device hosts that appear in the NetBackup Administration Console.

If you run this wizard after devices are configured, the wizard updates the NetBackup configuration. For example, if you add a new SCSI adapter, the path to the robotic library can change. A similar change to the configuration can occur if you add a new drive. This wizard updates the NetBackup configuration to match the new configuration.

You can select all device hosts in your configuration, but the wizard runs faster if you select only that the hosts that the changes affect.

If you added devices or moved devices on some device hosts in your configuration, on the Device Hosts screen only check the affected hosts, as follows:

To update the configuration after you add a drive to a robotic library

Select the device hosts where that drive is attached. Then select the device host that has the robot control (if applicable).

To update the configuration after you move a drive to another host

This topic is a NetBackup Enterprise Server topic.

Select the host from which the drive was moved. Select the device host that has the robot control (if applicable). Finally, select the host to which the device was moved.

The move changes each of these host's configurations. They must be scanned again by the wizard.

To update your configuration after you move robot control to another host

This topic is a NetBackup Enterprise Server topic.

Select the host from which you want to move robot control. Select the host to which you want to move robot control. Finally, select any other device hosts where drives are attached that use this robot control.

The move changes each of these host's configurations. They must be scanned again by the wizard.
