We have had the following situation occur when we are trying to restore a 
complete filesystem and the files are spread across multiple tape volumes.  The 
restore begins and requests a tape that has been checked out of the tape 
library, the restore process fails and marks the requested tape volume as 
unavailable.
We have set the MOUNTWAIT to 60 minutes and tried the restore with the 
TAPEPROMPT set to Yes and No, with the same results.  What is the procedure to 
allow the needed tape(s) to be checked in during the restore process?

Thanks in advance for your help.
