But If I do what you suggest it would also checkout the tapes for my onsite
copies that are full right?  I am looking for a way to check out multiples
tapes with one command (running a script would be my guess) to take a list
of predetermined tapes out of a LTO 3583.  I want to be able to check out
the OFFSITE tapes that are full and filling and the daily DB backup that is
in the OFF devclass.

Is ther a script that will allow me to identify them and then create a
macro file that could be run from to check them out one by one with
REMOVE=BULK?\

If anyone has this would you mind sharing?

Thanks for your help,

Etienne Brodeur

>  Is the MOVE MEDIA a command I could use to do this?
Yes.
Issue "MOVE MEDIA * STG=*  wherestatus=full", f.e. This will check all full
tapes from your library out.
