Taking Inventory of Tape Devices on Windows

Now that your devices are configured, use Oracle Secure Backup to take inventory of the volumes in your tape library.

1. If you are already logged on to Oracle Secure Backup, skip to Step 3.

2. To open Oracle Secure Backup, click the Start button and select Programs, Oracle Secure Backup, and Oracle Secure Backup Command Line Interface.

   The ob> prompt displays.

3. Specify the name of the library of which you are taking inventory. For example:

   ob> inventory -L tc-lib
   
   

   You can obtain library names by running the lsdev command.

4. List all the volumes in the library. For example:

   ob> lsvol -L tc-lib
   
   

   In this example, the command displays the following output:
