Can you tell bpbackupdb to take a backup to a specific tape ? If that is
possible, then I could write some little procedure that searches for an
available tape located in the robot and take the catalog backup to that
tape. Afterwards, it's easy to eject that tape, together with the other
tapes used for the normal backups.

Thanks !

Use bpbackupdb to backup the catalog to a tape to be
sent offsite.
