Handling the cartridges
Attention: Do not insert a damaged tape cartridge into the drive. A damaged cartridge can interfere
with the reliability of a drive and might void the warranties of the drive and the cartridge. Before a tape
cartridge is inserted, inspect the cartridge case, cartridge door, and write-protect switch for breaks.
Incorrect handling or an incorrect environment can damage cartridges or their magnetic tape. To avoid
damage to your tape cartridges and to ensure the continued high reliability of your IBM LTO Ultrium
Tape Drives, use the following guidelines:
Providing training
v Post procedures that describe appropriate media handling in places where people gather.
v Ensure that anyone who handles tape is properly trained in handling and shipping procedures. This
training includes operators, users, programmers, archival services, and shipping personnel.
v Ensure that any service or contract personnel who complete archiving procedures are properly trained
in media-handling procedures.
v Include media-handling procedures as part of any services contract.
v
Define and make personnel aware of data recovery procedures.
Ensuring proper packaging
v When a cartridge is shipped, use the original or better packaging.
v Always ship or store a cartridge in a jewel case.
v Use only a recommended shipping container that securely holds the cartridge in its jewel case during
transportation. Ultrium Turtlecases (by Perm-A-Store) are tested and found to be satisfactory (see
Figure 15 on page 45). They are available at http://www.turtlecase.com.
