There are more fields to update. At the very least you will need to
change "physical slots" and add exactly two fields to "volume ids"
and "volumes". There could be more. You would need to do this using
nsradmin (not nwadmin), or by stopping NetWorker and editing nsrjb.res.
Probably simpler to just re-run jbconfig - I would.
