Using DLT Cartridge Bar Code Labels
Make it a practice to use bar code labels on your tape cartridges. Your
host software may need to keep track of the following information and
the associated bar code:
•
Date of format or initialization
•
Cartridge owner (such as a group or department)
•
Storage purpose
TIP
If the host software does not keep track of this information, create a
method for doing so.
DLT cartridges have a front slide slot located on the face of the cartridge
next to the write-protect switch. Use this slot for inserting the bar code
label by sliding it into the slot (Figure D-3).
CAUTION
Do not apply labels onto the top, bottom, sides, or back of the cartridge as
this may cause damage to the tape drive or interfere with reliable
operation.
