Using Optical Disks
Labeling an Optical Disk Cartridge
Labeling an Optical Disk Cartridge
Make it a practice to label your optical disk cartridges. You are provided
adhesive labels with each disk for this purpose. Here are some
suggestions for labeling:
NOTE
Your jukebox application software may label your optical disk slot
locations differently. Use your application to check disk locations prior to
labeling the disks.
storage slot location (1, 2, 3, ... )
date of format or initialization
disk owner (group, department, etc.)
storage purpose (backup, old version of operating system, etc.)
HP recommends using end labels as shown in Figure 2-1. End labels
reduce the chance of label material interfering with the cartridge shutter
and causing a drive to jam.
CAUTION
Labels used in the vicinity of the shutter may cause the drive to jam if
the label is installed incorrectly or if portions of the label lift off because
of wear. If a drive jams because the label interferes with the shutter, a
service call may be necessary.
