Does anyone really know the difference between using just the 'L' option
with nsrjb to re-label a tape versus using the 'R' option to recycle it?
Typically, when I want to re-label a tape, I just use the 'L' option. I
do get prompted, and that's okay. Sometimes, I might remove the volume
first, though, but I've never used the 'R' option. I read the man pages,
but I'm still a little confused over the advantage of this option, and
why you would bother with it.

Thanks.

George
