Inventorying the Library

There are times when the contents of the library system do not match the record
of those contents in the library database. This usually occurs when the
cartridges have been added or removed by hand without appropriate
inventories, which is not recommended. The inventory operation rescans the
barcodes of the cartridges in the library and updates the database to the actual
library contents.

To inventory the contents of the library:

1. Select a library icon in the tree pane.

2. Choose

Inventory

from the

File

menu or from the shortcut menu with a

right-click. Since this operation may take several minutes, Media Manager
asks you to confirm that you want to inventory the entire library.

3. Click

Yes

to inventory the entire library.

The inventory operation, like all library operations, is processed in the
background. This allows you to continue working with the Media Manager
while the operation is being performed. The Transfer Monitor tool is used to
view background transactions. To view the Transfer Monitor, click the Profile
logo or choose

Tools | Transfer Monitor
