Netbackup 7.5 with Storagetech SL500 How to ADD new TAPE via CAP

[XTREM1337]

We have a Netbackup 7.5, with Windows 2008R2 connected to a Storagetech SL500 Library. I know how to eject volume from robot via the CAP but how I could insert new tapes into the robot via the CAP ?

I fulled the SL500 CAP with new tapes but I dont see any menu in Netbackup to ADD those new tape in the SL500...

Thanks

Another way would be to use Inventory GUI.

Select 'Update volume configuration' option and the 'Empty media access port prior to update on the Robot Inventory' option underneath it.

***EDIT***

Too slow!
