What do you see in nsrwatch at that time ?
What is in the log files ?
Are the tapes new ? Brand new or never used with Legato tapes should be
erased - see /etc/LGTOuscsi/erase (man erase). Otherwise Legato won't
accept them (deliberately).

That is correct.
Normally you login to the storage node and run nsrjb with -s server_name
-j jukebox_name.
There is way to control it from the server by using nsrexec. It might be
useful for scripting purposes. See
http://www.backupcentral.com/foms/networker-serve/cache/170.html for
details.
