Bar Code Reader

The bar code reader is an integral part of the library accessor. The bar code reader
provides inventory feedback to the host application, Operator Control Panel
display, and Web User Interface by reading cartridge bar code labels. The library
stores the customized inventory data in memory.

Library firmware supports a 6 or 8 character volume serial number (VOLSER) on
the bar code label on the tape cartridge. Bar code selection is available for libraries
with library code 4.50 or greater.

Encryption

The LTO Ultrium 5 and 6 Tape Drive supports Application Managed Encryption
(AME), and Library Managed Encryption (LME), using T10 encryption methods,
for SAS and Fibre Channel drives only. Data encryption is supported with LTO
Ultrium 4, Ultrium 5, and Ultrium 6 Data Cartridges only. Encryption is also
supported with library firmware version 5.80 and higher and drive firmware
version 77BE for LTO 4 and higher drive code level.

The encryption enabled drive contains the necessary hardware and firmware to
encrypt and decrypt host tape application data. Encryption policy and encryption
keys are provided by the host application or host server. A drive digital certificate
is installed at manufacturing time. Each drive receives a unique serial number and
certificate. The T10 application may validate each drive instance by checking the
drive's digital certificate.
