Hi,

Over the couple of years that I have been using two VXA-172 drives, I 
have noticed that my VXA tapes occasionally lose their label.  Once this 
week, on each of two different backup systems, I have had to intervene 
because bacula said to put in a specific tape or label a new one.  The 
tape bacula wants is already loaded into the drive.  If I then read the 
label with btape, btape says there is no label.  So I then label the 
tape again and go on my merry way.

If this is the case, I think I will have to come up with a way to read 
the label during a load, and if its not there, then see if the tape 
exists in the catalog, and if it does exist, then relabel it.
