Rahul,
The barcode length difference is caused by a setting at FW level
of the lib. I met same problems moving tapes from ATL P3000 and STK L700
The ATL showing all "Media Recognition chars (7th and 8th)" included
and the L700 one who is hidding them.
I solved the issue by forcing at ATL level barcode length to 6 chars.
An good advise : if you have to mix mediums, use a range of barcodes
like
000000 to 199999 for DLT
200000 to 399999 for LTO
400000 to 599999 for AIT
Then, you have just to specify barcode range you want when filling the
barcode PO.
THT,
Th

Subject: [Networker] Barcode Labels ( 6charactors-- 8charactors ?)
Hello Legato Gurus,
We had purchased L20 (DLT7000), L40(LTO Drive ) with 6 charactor Barcode
labels . Two days before we had a problem on one of the Jukebox and
Support
guys replaced the Hardware . Then we notice that our volumes are named
as 7
charactors , a Capital D is appearing for every label .
We purchased 6 charator Barcode labels and for last charactor a small
"D"
letter is appearing which is NOW recognized by Jukebox bar code reader.
After doing some analysis we found hat there is a setting in L20 where
you
can define charactor lengh of barcode labels , which is set to 8 when
hardware was replaced by support .
Now obviously we are happy to have 8 charactor barcode labels , but
problem
is Old volumes are 6 charactor names , if we change L20 jukebox setting
to
8 charactor then those old labels are identified as X X X 001D
instead
of X X X 001.
As Match volmes with barcode is set to true, do we will have problems in
restoring ?
I still want to go for 8 charactor Barcode labels anyway , how do I get
around with this problem .
Has anybody faced this problem ?
best regards,
- Rahul
