I don't have a SCSI library, but I should think it would be relatively easy to 
set up a simple monitor based upon dsmadmc -consolmode to watch for message 
ANR8915I, and over time to issue Query LIBVolumes Format=Detailed to look for 
"Cleanings Left" (or Select from LIBVOLUMES, to act on the CLEANINGS_LEFT 
field) to perform a Checkout when the time was right, accompanied by some 
message to the operator.
