jukebox - request

Request: Amdump/amflush enhancement.
Reference:
Solaris 9, Amanda 2.4.4, dual SUN StorEdge 9 (HP something jukebox),
LTO tape drives (one per jukebox).
Background:
Jukebox (on the Right/Remote) runs a tape pool for all remote
(clients != server) partitions that we backup.
Our other jukebox (Left/Local) backups of the local (client == server)
patitions.
The two amanda jobs run concurrently.
I know its not the best idea in the world but it works surprisingly
well. What we'd really like to do is write to both jukeboxes
concurrently from a single amanda config so that we have concurrency
of drive access.
We also runs a 3rd amanda config on the weekend, which is used to
do a level 0 on all partitions (both local and remote).
My request is this, since we pull (archive offsite) the tape
(ultimately tapes) used when we run the weekend/level-0 job,
it would be helpful if amdump/amflush where to report the SLOT(S)
of the tapes used in addition to the label and other information
already provided.
thanks,
Brian
