What do you mean?  We have barcode labels on all our tapes... and using IBM
LTO1 & 2 drives.

Do you mean putting labels elsewhere on the tape?   I doubt that would be a
good idea... but the tapes are designed to have barcode labels on them.  And
IBM librarys have barcode readers for that very reaosn.

IBM recommends that we don't put any sort of labels on our LTO tapes because
it would rub off and cause problems with the tape drives.  What do other
people do if you need some sort of proprietary label on them, per a company
requirement?  This may not be the right forum to ask this question, but I
thought I would start here and find out what others are doing.
