You can use your jukebox resource for cleaning the tape-device.  Set  the 
jukebox  resource  attribute  Auto  Clean to Yes and the Cleaning Slots 
attribute to a non-empty range of slots.
Manualy use nsrjb -l -f <yourdevice> -S <ceaningslot>

A much better way is to let the Scalar 100 do it on demand. Go over the main 
menu ->More -> Setup -> Library -> More -> AutoClean and set the autoclean 
checkmark. After that you have to set the uses of the cleaning tape, even if 
it's already in the Scalar 100. Go back to main menu -> Command -> I/O Station 
-> AutoClean  and set "Usecnt" to 46 and "Maxcnt" (default 50). A new cleaning 
tape has to be imported. Put the new cleaning tape in the mailslot of the 
Scalar 100 and again go over the main menu -> Command -> I/O Station -> 
AutoClean -> Import and after that, set the counters again.
Hope this helps,

regards 
Klaus

Hi All,

NetWorker 6.2.Build.109 Network/25 on Win2k, SP4.
Adic Scalar 100 AIT-3

I have a cleaning tape in slot 80:

C:\nsrjb | grep -i clean
    80: Cleaning Tape (4 uses left)                              -
-

I was just running a backup and networker was spitting out hundreds of
emails saying:
NetWorker media: (warning) \\.\Tape1 opening: Warning: tape drive
\\.\Tape1 requires cleaning

- How do I get networker to use the cleaning tape automatically?
- How do I do clean the drive manually if I am 2000 miles away from the
library?

Thanks,

Ben
