Aha.

nbemmcmd -changesetting -DO_NOT_EJECT_STANDALONE 1 -machinename
<whatever>


Because it makes sense for EMM to fail to get its initial settings from
the touchfiles everybody's already used to, of course, and to do
everything through a new management interface.

Don't get me wrong, it IS nice not to have to bounce daemons in order to
put these things into effect, but it sure seems like a lot of the EMM
changes violate the law of least surprise...

Subject: What happened to NO_STANDALONE_UNLOAD / ltid -nsu?

http://seer.support.veritas.com/docs/193080.htm certainly doesn't
mention anything later than NetBackup 4.5 FP2... and neither method
listed there works under 6.5.2.

I don't think I've ever really cared before, but now that I'm playing
with LTO-4 drive encryption on a standalone drive it's REALLY
infuriating to have to go push the tape in every time a label, write to,
or read from a tape. (I guess I might care in a DR test too, come to
think of it.)

Is it still possible to do this through some other knob or switch
somewhere?
