"XXXXXXXXXXXXXL2". If a media ID is not included, the label
must have a five to 15 character barcode; for example, "XXXXX"
or "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX".

"XXXXXXXXXXXXXL4". The media ID is reported to the host
first, as in "L4XXXXXXXXXXXXX".

alerted if a tape drive in the partition is receiving media access

the commands are unexpected. Media access commands can
include erase, format, load/unload, locate, read, rewind, send
diagnostic, set capacity, verify, or write.
