    General steps to move the robot control to windows master.

    • Make sure that Robot is detected by Windows OS of the master.
    • Move the tapes recognized by media server (original robot controlled host) to standalone, using master GUI NBconsole > Media and Device Management > Media. Highlight the media in robot and right click  move and move them to standalone.
    • In Master NBconsole GUI > Media and Device Management > Devices > Robots. Open the robot properties for new master server and change the robot control "Robot is controlled locally by this device host". Click the browse button and point to changer path and click OK.
    • Now change the robot control for media server to "Robot Controlled is handled by remote host" and mention the name of newly controlled robot host.
    • If you have more than one media server is same NB domain, you have follow step 4 for all other media servers.
    • Restart NBU services on Master and media server and inventory robot via master (new robot host).
