Re: Does my ADSM server have a tapeworm ??

We have recently discovered that our automated checkin script in perl
is failing because of the drive availability issues.
By default a checkin command uses checklabel=yes
which requires a mount of the volume.
I personally use checkl=no
when I'm just moving a tape. But when a tape returns from our
offsite (Arcus) (and its returning because it's been reclam'd and has no
'real' data on it) I like to check the label and be sure its not be
de-gaussed.
Therefore "stacked" checkin commands will sometimes fail if a process
requires a tape and pre-empt's it. Its a sortof different mount queue
from the one for normal tape mount use.
