Media Migration

The tape media must be cataloged once the tape media has been imported and inventoried on
the new PowerVault DL Backup to Disk Appliance. Cataloging the tape media allows Backup
Exec to read and store the information contained in the tape media catalog which includes:
Tape number/label/name (something to identify that tape from all others, which is
typically the barcode for tape media)
Date and time of the backup
Type of backup
What directories/files were backed up
Perform the following steps to catalog the imported tape media:
1. Click the tape drive/robotic library.
2. Select the slots containing the tape media that was just imported.
3. Right-click the tapes/slots and select Catalog.
