NOTE Do not rely on Data Protector to recognize other media types, as
recognition depends on the platforms you use.
Cartridge Memory
Enabled
Recognition
With Cartridge Memory enabled LTO drive(s) used with Cartridge
memory enabled media, Cartridge Memory provides the attributes for
giving specific ownership information. Data Protector uses this ability to
recognize media under ownership of other applications.
NOTE If you try to read from a medium that was written using hardware
compression with a device that does not support hardware compression,
Data Protector cannot recognize the medium and read the data.
Therefore, the medium will be treated as unknown or new.
