I have a question,
I have 6 tape drives and the Device names are not the same as the Robot Drive Number. I would like to simply rename the Drive name so Tape drives in the robot align with the Device name.
For example From Devices\Drives\ Right Click> Change Tape Drives
YC_LT05_000 _Currently shows Robot Drive as (2) and YC_LT05_002 has Robot drive (6)
Want to rename the drive names > YC_LT05_000 to 006 and LT05_002 ((2) same as Robot drive. etc.
tpconfig -l
Device Robot Drive Robot Drive Device
Type Num Index Type DrNum Status Comment Name Path
robot 0 - TLD - - - - {0,0,1,1}
drive - 0 hcart2 2 UP - YC_LTO5_000 {0,0,0,0}
drive - 1 hcart2 4 UP - YC_LTO5_001 {0,0,1,0}
drive - 2 hcart2 6 UP - YC_LTO5_002 {0,0,2,0}
drive - 3 hcart2 3 UP - YC_LTO5_003 {2,0,0,0}
drive - 4 hcart2 5 UP - YC_LTO5_004 {2,0,1,0}
drive - 5 hcart2 1 UP - YC_LTO5_005 {2,0,2,0}
Being new to Netbackup I just want to be sure that, by doing this will it cause any issues with drives and will a Restart be needed? I checked Admin guides but could not find anything related. This is not a major issue but it would make it easy to identfy Device and Robot Tape drive when problems happen with drives.
