Using HP Ultrium Cartridges

Chapter 4 4-5

Using HP Ultrium Cartridges

CAUTION HP Ultrium tape drives require special cleaning cartridges and data

cartridges formatted specifically for HP Ultrium. To avoid damage to your

tape drive, it is critical to use appropriate cleaning cartridges and

properly formatted data cartridges.

A unique feature of Ultrium tape cartridges is LTO-Cartridge Memory

(LTO-CM). LTO-CM is an intelligent memory chip embedded into the

cartridge. It uses a radio frequency interface that eliminates the need for

a physical power or signal connection between the cartridge and drive.

Information normally stored in the header at the beginning of the tape is

contained in the LTO-CM, including identification and usage information

such as the number of times the cartridge has been loaded, when it was

last cleaned, and error logs.

See the following sections for information on:

• Maintaining Ultrium Cartridges

• Write-Protecting Ultrium Cartridges

• Using Ultrium Cartridge Bar Code Labels

• Loading Ultrium Cartridges into a Magazine

• Using Ultrium Cleaning Cartridges

In addition to the information provided in this manual, you may also

want to refer to the documentation provided with your Ultrium media.

Maintaining Ultrium Cartridges

Make it a practice to visually inspect your tape cartridges when loading

or removing them from your tape library or autoloader. Taking a few

minutes to check the condition of your cartridges will lower the risk of

repeated failures and help ensure uninterrupted backup.

For general precautions when using tape cartridges, see page 1-7. In

addition, do not apply more than one label onto Ultrium cartridges, as

extra labels can cause the cartridges to jam in the tape drive.
