check the mminfo man page

you can check how many times a tape has recycled (been relabeled) as
well as the date of the original label:

 mminfo -r volume,recycled,olabel

or do a media report

 mminfo -m 

which gives:
 state volume                  written  (%)  expires     read mounts
capacity

Subject: [Networker] Tape Age

Does anyone know a command or a report that networker has that I can use
to tell the age of my media.  Management is asking that I identify how
old the tapes in the environment are and having inherited this
environment I don't have a easy way to tell the age of them currently.
