Media label that was assigned automatically by Backup Exec, or
that was assigned or changed by the administrator, or that was a
pre-assigned bar code label.
You can edit the media label, which is limited to 32 characters.
Editing the label changes the name of the media in the display, but
does not write the new label to the media until an overwrite
operation occurs. When you edit a media label, try to make it a
concise identifier that will remain constant even when the media is
reused. You should write this media label on a label fixed to the
outside of the physical media.
Duplicate labels can be automatically generated. For example,
reinstalling Backup Exec or bringing media from another Backup Exec
installation could cause duplication in labels. Duplicate labels
are allowed, but not recommended.
If a bar code is available, and a bar code-equipped device is
used, then the media label automatically defaults to that bar
code.
