I have a report generated by a perl script that generates a list of tapes
to be sent off-site. Occasionally, that list includes a tape that is in a
tape drive still being written. This confuses our operators who will
dutifully try to remove said tape from the tape drive even though the
report clearly says not to do that. It would be better if the report did
not identify any tapes currently being written in the list in the first
place. 

The report is written in perl on a Linux NetWorker 7.6 SP1 server. Does
anyone have any perl code that does what I am looking for so I can avoid
reinventing the wheel?
