Networker on Tru64 4.0f - Importing Media?

Hello Managers, I'm using a AS1000 with Tru64 4.0f testing a recovery
scenario, but I've never had to import media into networker.

I'm using Legato Networker version 5.5 Build 38 (the one that comes on Tru64
4.0f associated products CD).

This is a fresh install, and I want to be able to restore this tape on this
system, so if I try to mount this tape it gives me a message that (tape
name) is not in the media index. I tried using the scanner command, but I'm
not sure what to do with it, I just did a scanner /dev/nrmt0h and it scanned
the tape and said it was done, but I'm stuck from here.

So I guess this is two questions, one what's the easy way to import a tape
into the media index so I can recover the system and two, should I upgrade
networker? I'm using the free license that is included with Tru64 back when
we purchased it, guess it was OEM?

Thanks in advance.
