Associating media with a media set

When you associate media with a media set, the media uses the append and overwrite protection period properties of that media set.

Note:

Associating scratch or imported media with a media set is not recommended. Backup Exec automatically associates scratch or imported media with a media set when a backup job requires it.

To associate media with a media set

  1. On the navigation bar, click Media.

  2. Expand All Media to display a list of media.

  3. Select the media that you want to associate with a media set.

  4. Do one of the following:

    • Drag the media to the media set.

    • Under Media Tasks on the task pane, click Associate with media set, select a media set to associate the media with, and then click Yes or Yes to all.
