Using DLT Cartridge Bar Code Labels
Make it a practice to use barcode 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
Note If the host software does not keep track of this information,
create a method for doing so.
