No, when you inventory the jukebox, if the tapes are in the media database,
it will recognize them as being in the new jukebox.

Also check the definition of the pool they belong to.   If it was restricted
to device names "ie. storagenode1:/dev/rmt/1cvbn " ,  you'll need to change
the device names to the new storagenode.
