Taking a different approach and avoiding the IO slot I have put 5 new
tapes into the left cartridge.

I then ran the command:

label libvol lb1.1.0.3 search=bulk labels=barcode checkin=scratch

The same error appeared in the activity log:

11/08/2006 16:06:38      ANR0984I Process 596 for LABEL LIBVOLUME

FAILURE at
                          16:06:38. (SESSION: 7295, PROCESS: 596)

Is this the correct command for what I am trying to do?

Regards
Paul
