B.3 Data Cartridge Write-Protect Switch
Each data cartridge has a write-protect switch that you can use to prevent accidental erasure of data.
Before inserting the data cartridge into the tape drive, position the write-protect switch on the front of
the data cartridge (
Figure B-7 ) according to the type of operations you expect to perform.
Since the DLTtape VS1 data cartridge is a read-only data cartridge when used in the SDLT 600 tape
drive, the write-protect switch (in this configuration) does not apply.
Figure B-7.
Write-Protect Switch on DLTtape VS1 Data Cartridge
•
Slide the write-protect switch to the left to enable write protection (you can read existing data;
however, you cannot write over existing data on the media, nor append additional data to the
media). When you move the write-protect switch to the left, a small “closed” padlock is visible.
This is your visual reminder that you cannot write data to the media.
•
Slide the write-protect switch to the right to disable write protection (you can write over existing
data on the media, and you can append additional data to the media unless the data cartridge is
write-protected via firmware). When write-protection is disabled, a small “open” padlock is
visible.
