Hi Nick,
If you are talking about BE12, offline media is displayed in the media view with a black cross on a red circle. This means that the media is on-site, but not in the tape drive or library. And crosses usually indicate errors, this is not the case in this instance.

Hi,

It means the media is offline (as in offsite/not in the drive), and possibly write protected too.
I have that on all my monthly backups and they're not in error =)
Check out the Icon Glossary here to verify any queries on icons:

I will double-check what I said when I am in the office tomorrow.

Laters!
