If discrepancies exist between the media type reported by the LMU (in the VAR) and the 
VOLATTR information, the media type is prefixed by one of the following characters: 

displayed if the VAR media type and VOLATTR information do not match. In this 
case, the user should correct the erroneous VOLATTRs. 

displayed if both of these conditions are true: 

• a VOLATTR cannot be found for an ECART, ZCART, helical, or STK1 

cartridge (anything other than a Standard cartridge), and

• the cartridge external media label has been verified by the LMU.

displayed if both of these conditions are true: 

• a VOLATTR exists for an ECART, ZCART, helical, or STK1 cartridge  

(anything other than a Standard cartridge), and 

• the cartridge external media label has not been verified by the LMU. 

A flag of ‘‘Y’’ (yes) under the Errant (Err), Scratch (Scr), or Selected (Sel) headings  
indicates that the volume is currently in that status.

A volume in Errant (Err) status shows the volume’s home cell in the Cell Loc column.

Under the Selected heading, a flag of “Y” indicates that the volume is currently selected, 
that is, being mounted, dismounted, ejected, or moved. A flag of “M” indicates that the 
volume is currently mounted. The Selected column on the totals report includes both 
selected and mounted volumes. The volume’s home cell appears in the Cell Loc column.

Under the heading External Label (Ext Lbl), ‘‘R’’ indicates that the volume has a readable  
external label.  A flag of ‘‘U’’ (unreadable) means that the cartridge has an external label 
which the camera system is unable to read. ‘‘N’’ indicates that the cartridge has no 
external label. 

An ‘‘N’’ indicates a cartridge which is not usable, for example, a spent cleaning cartridge 
that is not usable because it has exhausted its cleaning surface. An ‘‘M’’ means that a 
cleaning cartridge has exceeded its maximum usage set by the VOLATTR MAXclean or 
MNTD MAXclean value.
