Not true. Tapes in a jukebox will automatically recycle to the same pool even without AMM set. They will also recycle to other pools if the "recycle to other pools" and "recycle from other pools" are set for the correct NSR pool resource.

This is a common misunderstanding. AMM for a jukebox only applies to blank tapes. AMM for a standalone device is slightly different.
