I have a SpectraLogic BullFrog (10K). Unload them then reload them.

Yes, but HOW do you load the tapes and unload them? More to the point, if
you are not using "nsrjb -d" and "nsrjb -w" and are using your tape
library directly to load/unload tapes, that's the problem.

Interesting. I do not have a silo, so -d doesn't apply. I suppose I could try nsrjb -w which may work. Annoying, this wasn't necessary previous to 7.3.2 (and I've been using networker since at least version 4). The jukebox has one "door" which I imagine would be the "cartridge accession port". So I'd have to use the command line to get tapes out, one by one, rather than using the jukebox touch screen & door button to remove tapes.

I'll try this, though I suspect just doing what I have been doing is less complicated and just as fast.

Thanks for the idea.
