To write protect a cartridge (administrators only)

Page 25 highlights

NOTE: You can also delete cartridges by reducing the number of slots on the Devices page, but this will only remove the highest blank slots. Once the Delete operation reaches a slot number that contains data, it will not allow you to reduce the number further on the Details page, even if earlier slots are blank. You must first use the Cartridges tab to make the slot blank. To write protect a cartridge (administrators only) 1. Click Edit for the selected library. 2. Check the Write Protected check box for the cartridge(s). 3. Click on Update. Your backup application will not be able to write any more data to the cartridge(s). To edit maximum cartridge size (administrators only) The Max Size defaults to the appropriate capacity for the drive emulation type selected on the Devices tab, but you can edit this value. The maximum value allowed is 3200 GB. NOTE: The maximum size indicates the maximum amount of user data that can be written to that cartridge, assuming uncompressed data; it will only be committed when data is written to it. Changing the maximum space does not affect actual disk usage or save disk space, but may be useful if you know you will be moving data to a physical tape with a smaller cartridge capacity. 1.
