Changing the device view type

NetVault Backup provides two device view types:

•
Physical View – This is the default view type. This view displays the actual structure of the library, including all drives, slots, and entry/exit ports. Media are shown at their current location in the library.
•
Logical View – This view is centered around the actual media in a library. The device tree consists of two folders – Drives and Media. The libraries and drives are grouped as Drives, and the Media are grouped according to the Group Label.

To change the device view type, follow these steps:

1
In the Navigation pane, click Manage Devices.
2
Click Change View.
3
NetVault Backup will change the view from Physical to Logical or vice versa, and displays a message.

Opening and closing library door

Before opening a library door, you must issue the Open Door command from the WebUI. NetVault Backup puts a software lock on the library door to prevent anyone from opening the door without issuing the Open Door command. If you do not issue this command, NetVault Backup does not know when tapes are added, removed, or rearranged, and it may attempt to load non-existent media.

To open a library door from WebUI:
1
In the Navigation pane, click Manage Devices.
2
In the list of devices, click the applicable library. Click Open Door.
The library goes offline when you open the door.
3
To bring it back online, click the library and click Close Door.
