Hello out there. Is there anyone familiar here with using BRMS & the kinds of barcode labels you can put on LTO tapes? Just trying to wrap my head around a few things.
We purchased a stack of standard-looking preprinted barcode labels already for our LTO 6 tapes. They have a format of "000001 L6"
They're working fine so far for our daily backups, but what if we wanted to use custom barcode labels? For example, if we do one-off tape backups or monthly backups, is there anything against us ordering a custom label? E.g. "EM1220 L6" to signify a December 2020 monthly backup tape.
My main concern is just having labels on tapes that make sense to the tape operator or we need to quickly hunt down an old monthly tape backup. Curious to see how others out there handle this. Thanks!
