You can also specify the device(s) to use for inventory purposes.  The command 
would look like the following in a Win environment...

 nsrjb -Iv -f \\.\Tape0 -f \\.\Tape1 -f \\.\Tape2 -f \\.\Tape3 etc...

So, if you have 4 drives in your jukebox and its set at 3 for parallelism by 
default, you can effectively use the above command to utilize all devices to 
inventory.  It's the long way around but it bypasses the need for modifying the 
jukebox parallelism.

It's nsrjb -I or nsrjb -IE. I usually add a v so that I can see what it's
doing. However... it will only use as many drives as the parallelism setting
of your jukebox resource, and the default for this value is one less than
the number of drives. If you want to use all drives, change the jukebox
parallelism setting to the same as the number of drives.
