I familiar with adding new tape library\drive only through wizard.
I wanted to add and configure this tape drive via command line. Currently the tape library\drive is configured as shared to the existing media servers.
With this command line;
to add robot:
tpconfig -add -robot <robnum> -robtype <robtype> -robpath <devfile>
to add tape dirve:
tpconfig -add -drive -type <drvtype> -path <drivepath> -asciiname <asciidrvname> -index <drvindex> -shared [yes|no] -drstatus UP|DOWN|DISABLED [-robot <robnum> -robtype <robtype> -robdrnum <robdrvnum>
Based on the information from "scan" command line how can i identify all the value for
<robnum>, <robtype> & <devfile> to add tape library\robot
<drvtype>, <drivepath>, <asciidrvname>, <drvindex>, <robnum>, <robtype> & <robdrvnum> to add new tape drive?
Thanks.
