Labeling media allows the library to quickly recognize and differentiate one media from the others. Bar code recognition is a library-specific feature. Each media comes from its manufacturer with a bar code label affixed to the outer edge of the media cartridge. This label has a predefined serial number in letters and numerals, which is used as the media serial number when the media is formatted.
If you select a media pool name and the media has an assigned bar coded serial number, that serial number is preserved and the media pool range is ignored.
Note: When the serial number or bar code does not exist on the media, Arcserve Backup displays N/A (not available) on the media description in the Device Manager.
