Secure data through Write Protection
For added security, write protection can be 
enabled for any tape cartridge with a VTL. When 
write protection is enabled, existing data on the 
tape cartridge cannot be overwritten or erased. 
The displayed data can be sorted by any field by 
clicking on the heading for the field; clicking 
twice reverses the sort order.
