I run NW 7.3.2jumbo on Win2003, with a HP SDLT320 tape library (48 slots, 
4 drives). I'd like to write a script to re-label only certain tapes 
(i.e., if a tape in any slot is in pool CLONE and the mode is RECYCLEABLE, 
I want to re-label that tape, keeping it in the same pool. But not 
re-label a tape in pool CLONE that is APPENDABLE).

I've searched, but don't seem to see a way to automate this, because I 
would need to query NetWorker for the mode and pool of each tape in each 
slot, so there would be no user interaction required. Can anyone provide 
clues or pointers to how I might be able to accomplish this? (if it can be 
done, that is)

Thanks
