When detecting tape devices, Acronis Backup finds tape devices attached to the machine and places information about them in the tape management database. Detecting tape devices is required:
After you have attached or re-attached a tape device.
After you have installed or reinstalled Acronis Backup on the machine to which a tape device is attached.
When detecting tape devices, Acronis Backup disables them from RSM.
To detect the tape devices
In the Navigation tree, click Tape management. If connected to the management server, select the storage node to which your tape device is attached.
Click Detect tape devices. You will see the quantity of connected tape devices, their drives and slots.
