Sorry but I had to take up your challenge.

Winag.pdf off the may 2002 cd (version 6.2) , search on auto media management, 
first hit gave a
good clear explanation.

Search on "(R)"  , read down the page - good explanation of the fact the read 
only mode tapes will
still be recycled and labeled according to the policies. Im not agreeing with 
it working that way but
it is in the manuals.

mmlocate - so you dont have to remember (more) switches for nsrmm as you move 
tapes offsite
;-)



Regards


Kit
