Injecting media by using the vltinject command

The vltinject command injects volumes into a robot and updates the Media Manager volume database. It requires as an option the name of a profile (if unique) or a robot number, vault, and profile name.

The following is the format of the vltinject command:

vltinject profile|robot/vault/profile

The following example command injects volumes that were vaulted by the Payroll profile and that were returned from the off-site vault:

vltinject Payroll

Note:

If you use the same profile name across vaults in your vault configuration, then you should specify the robot/vault/profile attributes.

The following example injects volumes that were vaulted by the Weekly profile in the Finance vault and that were returned from the off-site vault:

vltinject 8/Finance/Weekly

See the NetBackup Commands manual for more information about the vltinject command.

  2. Load the media to be injected into the robot's media access port.
