Configuring a Tape or Optical Library ■ Bar code reader installed-This option is for tape libraries only. Enable this if you have a bar code reader installed and, if you want to set unknown bar code media to blank, enable the Set unknown bar code media to blank during initialization option. ■ Eject media upon backup job completion-Enable this if you want to move tapes back to their slots after a backup job. Note: You can override this option on a per job basis by enabling the global Do not Eject Media option for jobs. In addition, if you do not enable this option and later decide that you want to eject media after a particular job, you can enable the global Eject Media option for jobs. For more information on global options, see Global Options in the chapter "Backing Up Your Data." Advanced Settings You can revise the current configuration from the Summary dialog. The Summary dialog displays the choice you made when you configured the BrightStor ARCserve Backup Tape and Optical Library Option. Check if the devices configuration on your server matches your hardware setup. The following advanced options are available: ■ Library Quick Initialization-When this feature is enabled, it allows BrightStor ARCserve Backup to skip the library inventory process that is automatically activated when the Tape Engine is started. When this feature is disabled (the default), the entire library is inventoried each time BrightStor ARCserve Backup is started. Note: Upon initial startup of the Tape Engine, the library is always initialized. This feature is used to disable the inventory process after the initial inventory. ■ Mark Drive(s) Online/Offline-This allows you to mark defective drives (in a multi-drive library) as offline. BrightStor ARCserve Backup will continue to operate using the remaining non-defective drives. When the drive is repaired or replaced, it can be brought online. 6-4 Administrator Guide

Administrator Guide
Bar code reader installed—This option is for tape libraries only. Enable this if
you have a bar code reader installed and, if you want to set unknown bar code
media to blank, enable the Set unknown bar code media to blank during
initialization option.
Eject media upon backup job completion—Enable this if you want to move
tapes back to their slots after a backup job.
Note:
You can override this option on a per job basis by enabling the global
Do not Eject Media option for jobs. In addition, if you do not enable this option
and later decide that you want to eject media after a particular job, you can
enable the global Eject Media option for jobs. For more information on global

Advanced Settings
You can revise the current configuration from the Summary dialog. The Summary
dialog displays the choice you made when you configured the BrightStor
ARCserve Backup Tape and Optical Library Option. Check if the devices
configuration on your server matches your hardware setup. The following
advanced options are available:
Library Quick Initialization—When this feature is enabled, it allows
BrightStor ARCserve Backup to skip the library inventory process that is
automatically activated when the Tape Engine is started. When this feature is
disabled (the default), the entire library is inventoried each time BrightStor
ARCserve Backup is started.
Note:
Upon initial startup of the Tape Engine, the library is always initialized.
This feature is used to disable the inventory process after the initial inventory.
Mark Drive(s) Online/Offline—This allows you to mark defective drives (in a
multi-drive library) as offline. BrightStor ARCserve Backup will continue to
operate using the remaining non-defective drives. When the drive is repaired
or replaced, it can be brought online.
