Transferring an Existing Media Definition
Use
You can transfer existing definitions for
backup media from the media definition file control.med (database version 6.2) to the new media definition file dbm.mmm (as of database version 7.2.4.2).(See also:
Database Files)The media definition from the old file is not transferred if there is an identical media name in the old and new media definition files.
As the old definitions for backup media do not contain a backup type (incremental data backup, complete data backup, or log backup), you should define this afterwards using the command
