I think^Wassume that bscan can/SHOULD handle a single tape cartridge.

This is the command line the original poster shared with us on 2013-04-02
 ./bscan -b /bacula/bscanVolsBootstrap.bsr -c /etc/bacula/bacula-sd.conf -v -s 
-m /dev/st0

The tricky part might in the high tech stuff behind /dev/st0.
If /dev/st0 is simple tape drive, it will scan a single tape.
However if /dev/st0 is a tape library, expect that is goes through _all_ tapes.

So check what kind of hardware your /dev/st0 is.


In other words:
  I understand the wish to avoid thirty tapes again,
  but I'm not familar with bscan, neither known what /dev/st0
  the OP has.
