With a valid media type identifier present and the Media Type Checking
setting enabled, which is the case by default, a host is prevented from
executing invalid media moves across differing media types. For example,
a host can be prevented from moving LTO-2 media to an LTO-1 drive. If
an invalid move is attempted, the library returns an error to the host.
Regardless of whether or not partition media policies are enabled or
disabled, the library always prevents host move-media commands that
cross different media domains. For example, the library never runs a host
command that moves an LTO cartridge from an LTO drive to a DLT
storage slot, and vise versa.
With the Return Media Identifier setting, you can control if and where a
media type identifier appears in the volume serial number that is returned
to the host.
