Write-Protecting DLT Cartridges
Each cartridge has a sliding write-protect switch. Using the write-protect
switch ensures data safety for files that have been previously written to
tape, preventing additional files from being written to that tape.
To change the write-protect setting, move the write-protect switch
(Figure 2-2):
• Left to prevent data from being written to the cartridge. The orange
indicator on the cartridge can be seen when the write-protect switch
is in the “ON” position.
• Right to allow data to be written to the cartridge. The orange
indicator on the cartridge cannot be seen when the write-protect
switch is in the “OFF” position.
NOTE With the write-protect switch in either position, data can be read from the
cartridge.
