Hi,
where can I define that a new inserted labeled volume will be mounted automatically without user intervention?
System is networker 6.2 on NT 4.
 
I use an older version of Legato but i am pretty sure it is the same -

Under device Configuration, right click the device you want to change, select the Operation tab, and set Auto Media Management to Yes.

This will auto mount inserted labeled volumes as long as you have ejected the previous volume so that Legato knows it is not the same tape.

David,

IF you set Yes on Auto Media Management to Yes, Legato will not eject and mount next labeled media?
 
Please be aware that there are delays involved as well.

For instance, if you start an automatic backup (by starting
a group), you will need to wait 15 min before the media will
be (labeled and) mounted.
 
not always 15 minutes. I have seen it take a lot less time than 15 minutes for networker to grab and relabel an appropriate tape.
 
Can you be a bit more specific please and state the NW release and drive type ?. Thank you.
