Slot Number
|
Number of the slot. This field only appears if Slots has been
selected.
|
|
Bar Code
|
Label obtained from a bar code reader. This field only appears
if Slots has been selected. Bar code information only appears if
the robotic library has a bar code reader and a bar code label is
on the media.
|
|
Media Label
|
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.
|
Note:
|
If a bar code is available, and a bar
code-equipped device is used, then the media label automatically
defaults to that bar code.
|
|
|
Media Description
|
By default, displays the original media label if the media is
imported media. If the media description has been edited, the new
description appears. Otherwise, this field is blank.
|
|
Allocated Date
|
Date and time when the media was added to a media set as a
result of an overwrite operation.
|
|
Media Set
|
Name of the media set this media belongs to.
|
|
Media Location
|
Name of the device or vault where this media is located.
|
|
Overwrite Protected Until
|
Date and time after which the media can be overwritten.
|
|
Appendable Until
|
Date and time after which the media can no longer be appended
to.
|
|
Used Capacity
|
The amount of raw capacity on the media that has been used. Used
Capacity is calculated by subtracting Available Capacity from Total
Capacity.
Used Capacity may or may not equal Bytes Written.
|
|
Compression Ratio
|
The ratio of Bytes Written to Used Capacity. Compression ratio
will show the overall effect that data compression and media flaws
are having on the amount of data that is being stored on the
media.
