Override media owner schedule attribute

The Override media owner attribute applies to tape media only and specifies whether to use the policy media owner or another owner for this schedule. The rules for shared disk media are more flexible, so override settings are not needed.

Specify one of the following:

Any

NetBackup chooses the media owner, either a media server or server group.

None

Specifies that the media server that writes to the media owns the media. No media server is specified explicitly, but you want a media server to own the media.

A server group

Specifies that a media server group allows only those media servers in the group to write to the media on which backup images for this policy are written. All media server groups configured in the NetBackup environment appear in the drop-down list.

To override the media owner that the Media Owner General Attribute specifies, select the check box. Choose the media owner from the drop-down list

To use the policy media owner, do not select the check box. NetBackup uses the media owner that is specified in the Media Owner General Attribute.
