In that case, then just stick the tape into the drive and run the scanner 
command.

However, before running scanner, you need to make sure that the volume pool 
that the tape belongs, as well as all the client that have saveset backups on 
that tape, is defined in the local n/w server.  Otherwise NetWorker cannot scan 
in the information correctly.

This information can be retrieved by going back to the n/w server where the 
tape was created from.
