bplable requires the -p POOLNAME as well.
If you have a library the command
bplabel -ev $MID -d $DEN -p $PNAME
will request the mount of the tape.
However, you don't need to relabel after you unfreeze a tape. The label is
still there. If you are questioning the label, then put a -o to force an
overwrite of the label.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] How to use bplabel
I'm using NB 3.4 with a dual drive TLD robot and one my tapes keeps
getting frozen as soon as a backup is attempted on that tape. I can unfreeze
it without problems.
I thought I should bplabel this tape (still not sure) and whenever I
issue:
bplabel -ev 000001 -d dlt
I get Requested number of drives are not configured.
I get the same message if I issue bplabel -ev 000001 -d dlt -n
QUANTUMDLT70000.
Must the tape be in the drive in standalone mode or will the robot load
the tape?
Thanks,
Jean Bagdoo
