Creating bar code rules in mixed media libraries

If a robotic library has bar code support, then you can create bar code rules. Bar code rules specify the type of media that Backup Exec should use in a robotic library drive.

To create bar code rules in a mixed media library

  1. On the Tools menu, click Options.

  2. In the Properties pane, under Settings, click Bar Code Rules.

  3. Click New.

  4. Select the appropriate options.

    See Add Bar Code Rule options.

  5. Click OK to save the bar code rule for the media.

  6. Verify that bar code rules are enabled for the robotic library. The bar code rules do not go into effect until you enable them for the robotic library.

    See Enabling bar code rules for robotic libraries.
