Media Mount Timeout

The Media Mount Timeout After property specifies the number of minutes that NetBackup waits for the requested media to be mounted, positioned, and ready on backups and restores.

Use this timeout to eliminate excessive waits when it is necessary to manually mount media (for example, when robotic media is out of the robot or off site). When restoring backups or archives that were written to a disk being managed by Storage Migrator on a UNIX server, the media mount timeout value is in effect during the caching of potentially migrated files. If a file is part of a large disk image that Storage Migrator has migrated to tape, there must be enough time to cache in the entire disk file.

This property appears for master servers only.
