Saving the Configuration

A configuration file is used to restore the library's configurable items to a previous state. Save the library configuration when the library is in a known working state or when you change configurable items, such as tape drive IDs, partitions, user accounts, and so on.

NOTE: This operation should not be performed concurrently by multiple administrative users logged in from different locations. You can access the appropriate screens, but you cannot apply changes while another administrative user is performing the same operation.

Users with administrative privileges can save the library configuration, but users with user privileges cannot.
