Hmm, don't forget to change the other pools "recycle tapes from other pools" to 
yes.

Yes, as I stated under manage pools.

I tried this per instructions posted on this list but Legato ignores my changes. If I could could get this to work that would be ideal!
As I remember the process...:

 shut down legato
 backup /nsr/res/nsr.res
 edit /nsr/res/nsr.res
  - find "Default" pool
  - @ "Recycle to other pools: No;", change "No" to "Yes"
 restart Networker
 manage pools
 - allow desired pools to "Recycle from other pools"

Did I miss a step or ?

Yup, that was the technique.  Perhaps it no longer works (I haven't tried it in 
some time).
I'm assuming that after you restart Networker that the setting appears correct 
in nwadmin/nsradmin, but that it's just not having any effect?

Yes, all changes show via all interfaces (nsradmin & the GUI ones):
- Default pool:   Recycle to other pools: [Yes]   No ;
- NDMP Pool:      Recycle from other pools: [Yes]   No ;
- Finance Pool:   Recycle from other pools: [Yes]   No ;
...etc...

I'll try this: make sure there are only recyclable Default pool tapes in the
jukebox and fire off a few non-Default pool backups and see what happens.
