If you are using barcodes with your library, you can do this automatically. If using the JAVA or NT GUIs, then start Media and Device Management, select Perform volume configuration update button found under Actions | Inventory robot. If you are using xvmadm, then select the Update Volume Configuration button found under Robots | Use Inventory to Update Volume Information~E If you are not using barcodes, then you must physically move the media to the position indicated by the media volume configuration. This can also be done with vmupdate.
