Modifying the Access Information for a Disk Library

You might need to change the access information, such as access credentials and/or path on a shared disk. For example if the access credentials are changed in the operating system, you can set the new credentials from the CommCell Console for the disk library.

For Windows devices, you can modify the access information from the device level, which will change access information for all the MediaAgents that share the device.

For Unix MediaAgents, this must be performed from each folder level, which will change the access credentials for each of the specific MediaAgents that access the device.
