I agree.  Auto media management is set to on for the jukebox but off for the
individual drives.

There is a "jukebox-wide" auto media management setting, which you can see
in the Networker GUI under Media->Jukeboxes, that you often *do* want to
enable.  This allows for the jukebox to do various things on your behalf.

You're right that you probably don't want to fool with the per-drive
setting for drives in a jukebox, but the overall setting is very useful.
