Installing Barcode Labels
Each cartridge in the library must have an external label that is operator
and machine readable to identify the barcode number. Most
manufacturers offer cartridges with the labels already applied or with the
labels included that you can attach.
Duplicate barcodes are not supported even if you
have mixed media or multiple partitions in the
library. If the library has cartridges with identical
barcode labels, the library will issue a ticket
notifying you of the problem. Areas in the LMC
where media IDs are listed will show information
for the first cartridge, but the cartridge with the
duplicate barcode label will not be listed.
All barcode labels are applied to the front of a cartridge. Peel off the label
and place it on the cartridge. Verify that label is oriented so that the
numbers appear above the barcode. Figure
51 on page 509 shows an
example of a barcode label being applied to an LTO cartridge.
Do not place a barcode label on top of a cartridge.
Doing so can cause inventory operations to fail.
