Subject: [PATCH proxmox-backup] docs: lto barcode generator: allow digits in the label prefix or no prefix at all
Date: Wed, 11 Nov 2026 18:33:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261111173346.497452-1-j.theisen@proxmox.com> (raw)
The prefix field only accepted letters, but the LTO Ultrium cartridge
label specification [0] allows both letters and digits in the six
character volume serial.
Since the generator just appends a zero-padded counter to the prefix,
digits need no special handling.
Allowing an empty prefix also enables users to just generate basic
incrementing number labels.
This was already possible by adding a config entry and then removing
the prefix in the edit window.
Dropping the end of line "$" for clarity since the maskRe property
is matched against single characters.
