Virtual Library Configuration

This option allows you to configure or modify the configuration of a Virtual Library in the Windows environment.

This option is used to set up all virtual libraries. It enables you to define virtual libraries and their parameters, including the number of slots and drives required for the library. At minimum, a virtual library must have at least one slot and one drive associated with it.

Since the Virtual Library feature works on existing configured libraries, you must install the Tape Library option and configure your physical libraries prior to configuring virtual libraries.

Note: You must separate WORM (Write Once Read Many) and non-WORM media in the same library using the Arcserve Backup Virtual Library Option through Device Configuration. If WORM and regular media are not separated, the Job Manager treats all media as WORM media. However, the Device Manager can manage these media correctly.
