Configuring Quest NetVault Backup to Work with VTL Devices
After you have connected the virtual tape library (VTL) devices to the Windows client, you configure
Quest NetVault Backup to recognize your devices. For information about how to connect VTL devices to
the Windows client, see Connecting Your VTL Devices (p. 84).
The Quest NetVault Backup application doesn't automatically recognize tape gateway devices. You must
manually add the devices to expose them to the Quest NetVault Backup application and then discover
the VTL devices.
Adding VTL Devices
To add the VTL devices
1. In Quest NetVault Backup, choose Manage Devices in the Configuration tab.
2. On the Manage Devices page, choose Add Devices.
3. In the Add Storage Wizard, choose Tape library / media changer, and then choose Next.
4. On the next page, choose the client machine that is physically attached to the library and choose
Next to scan for devices.
5. If devices are found, they are displayed. In this case, your medium changer is displayed in the device
box.
6. Choose your medium changer and choose Next. Detailed information about the device is displayed
in the wizard.
7. On the Add Tapes to Bays page, choose Scan For Devices, choose your client machine, and then
choose Next.
All your drives are displayed on the page. Quest NetVault Backup displays the 10 bays to which you
