A Volume represents one physical object. Common Volumes include single LTO Cartridges, single DLT Cartridges, single compact discs, etc.

Volumes are the lowest Object of the TapeTrack hierarchy. They are owned by Customers and Media Types and can be moved between Repositories.

A Volume-ID is a string of characters associated with a Volume.

The Volume-ID will be reflected in the Volume Barcode, which may be a Fully Qualified Barcode, or an Unqualified Barcode.

They are often referred to as Volume Serials or Volsers.
