NFORMATION

The autoloader maintains a cartridge inventory to keep track of where

cartridges are located. In performing an inventory, the autoloader checks for

cartridges in the cells and scans each cartridge’s bar code label. The autoloader

uses this information to process commands from an application.

and each time a cartridge is loaded or unloaded from the tape drive. You can
