Parameters

library_name (Required)
Specifies the name of the library to be updated.
SHAREd
Specifies that this library is shared with other servers in a storage area network (SAN). You must issue this command from the server defined as the primary library manager for the shared library. This parameter is required for libraries defined to a library manager and for libraries used for NDMP operations. Specify SHARED=YES to update a library that is not currently shared.
Important: If a library has a path from a data mover (such as a NAS file server) but no connection to the server, the library cannot be shared with another server.

Example: Update a FILE library to be shared

Update a file library named FILE2, so that it is shared:
update library file2 shared=yes
