Ejecting media by using the NetBackup Administration Console

Use the NetBackup Administration Console to eject media and generate reports for all vaults, for a single vault, or for a profile for which media have not yet been ejected.

When you select Deferred Eject, the default selections on the Deferred Eject dialog box depend on whether you are ejecting for all vaults, for a single vault, or for a profile. From the dialog box, you can initiate the eject operation or preview the media to be ejected. The preview shows the session IDs for which the deferred eject occurs and the media IDs for each session selected. You also can select whether to generate the reports after the ejection.
