Previously few of the media were labelled with the Last Six characters of the bar code inventory rule, Now all the rest follow the First Six.
Now I need a solution to fix this one so that all the media have the same media id format.
If we change the media id will it effect the restorations/backups in future
The below is the current first 6 characters format.
This one is correct.
