Are you sure? From the output of 'status sd' below one can see that tape
'TAG-2' is in use but the storage daemon still reports a poolname '*unknown*'.

Device status:
Device "SONY-SDX-470V" (/dev/nst0) is mounted with Volume="TAG-2" 
Pool="*unknown*"
    Total Bytes Read=0 Blocks Read=0 Bytes/block=0
    Positioned at File=0 Block=0
====

In Use Volume status:
TAG-2 on device "SONY-SDX-470V" (/dev/nst0)
====

*list volumes
Pool: Default
No results to list.
Pool: Day Pool

Is there something I don't understand here?
