I believe that's only true if your saveset does *not* extend across
multiple tape volumes. If it does, you are supposed to do a "scanner -m"
(which you can do in parallel, BTW - run it simulataneously on multiple
tapes) to populate the media database, but then you must do a "mminfo" to
discover the order of the tape volumes that the saveset is stored on
(i.e., tape 2A has is the beginning of the saveset, and 4A has the middle,
and 3A has the tail of the saveset), then you must do a "scanner -i" in
that order (i.e., 2A, then 4A, then 3A) in sequence. Not in parallel.
