We've got 16 tapes in a tapecycle of 5 over a week (cron runs once a
weekday, runtapes is 1), and we're trying to keep enough tapes offsite
such that there's everything required to do a full restore from the
latest backup of all machines... this should be 5 tapes, but sometimes
grows when a flush is run.

So I'm wondering if there's a amadmin command or somesuch that we can use
that'll tell us which tapes are in the set of tapes required to do a full
restore from, i.e. for all DLEs (I think that's the correct term) the tapes
that hold that image back to the most recent level 0, inclusive.

Is there such a command that'll spit out a neat summary, otherwise where
should I be looking for the data that'll tell me this so I can write such a
tool?
