In the gui, right click on your jukebox select properties. On the
configuration tab uncheck the box that says match barcode labels.
I don't have the NMC in front of me, but I believe that's the right one.

Subject: [Networker] Can't set custom volume label on LTO4 tapes
Hi gang!
I'm trying to setup a new Storagetek Sl500 with 4 HP LTO Ultrium-4 tape
drives.
So far I've gotten everything working I've tried except the volume
labeling.
No matter what volume label I specifiy it awlays labels the tape to be
the
same as the barcode of the tape.
It manages to use the tapes properly based I assume on the tape pool
which
is being set properly.
Networker 7.2.2 Jumbo
Solaris 9
Also in Networker I defined these tape drives LTO-3 since LTO-4 is not a
listed option. This always worked in the AIT world!
Here's an example:
# nsrjb -j UofMjukebox2 -L -b Sep -S 89
Are you sure you want to over-write 000001 with a new label? y

#nsrjb -j UofMjukebox2 -C

I've opened a case with EMC but wondered if this was the default with
LTO
tapes or if anyone else has had this problem?
Thanks!
