Hello,

Is there a way to control the Cartridge Access Port on a library from
nwadmin or similar NetWorker GUI? I can use the nsrjb command to deposit
tapes from the CAP into the library or withdraw tapes from the library
into the CAP, but it would be really nice if there was a NetWorker GUI
feature to do this. I just don't see anything under nwadmin about this.
Are there any plans to add this capability? Our tape operator does not
have root access so he would not be able to run the nsrjb command unless
we wrote a setuid script or something like sudo.

We're running a Storagetek L80 LTO library. We've been told by
Storagetek that the library can be equipped to allow remote access via a
WEB GUI to do these types of operations, including the ability to move
tapes from one slot to another, but the library does not come this way
by default and there is a fee for the upgrade.

Thanks.
