Might this be udev on Linux?
Maybe
Why don't you `amadmin <conf> no-reuse' all of your old tapes, and label
the new ones with a different name, DailySet1-025 ff. for example? That
way, you keep the ability to restore from the old tapes, tape names do
not change, and you never have two tapes carrying the same name. Unless
you really want the tapes to be numbered starting from -001.
After "tapecycle" tapes have passed in the rotation, wouldn't the contents of the tapes have been are overwritten anyway ? Considering this, I taught I might as well relabel them when their time comes around.
