Are the tapes labeled as the correct media type for the drives?

I had a similar problem when I reconfiged my silo and mistakenly changed
my drive type from 9940 to 9940B.  All my media was then label as 9940
so it wouldn't mount.

I've got a new tape library attached to a storage node. Everything is
working;i.e, I can label, mount, unmount, tapes, etc... However when I
start a savegroup in announces that it is looking for a volume from the
pool, and then sits there. No nsrjb processes are launched, etc..
However, if I manually mount the tape in that library, the back
immediately starts spooling to the tape. The inventory shows correct,
etc..., it just doesn't seem to want to load those tapes. I've verified
the drive is selected in the pool, etc...

Anyone have a clue?
