Hi, All

when I use "nsrjb -L" to label a tape and assign it to a pool,
Networker dismounts the tape immediately after it's finished. if I want
to use that tape right away it has to be re-mounted. given that each
mount and dismount cycle seems to take about 5 minutes this is a bit of
a pain. I can't see anything about this in the nsrjb manpage but I'm
wondering if there's some way to label a tape and specify that it should
remain mounted afterwards? I'm using Networker 6.0 with an STK 9710
library.

TIA
