168 DLT Drives and Tape Cartridges Appendix A
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
Note 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 48 on page 169).
