Win2003 SP2, NW 7.4.2

So I have an old tape, no indexes on tape. I need a set of files off this 
tape (I know the exact names I want). Problem - tape volume is *not* 
listed in media db (dunno why - inadvertently erased?).

Anyways, I do a "scanner -v -m <device>", and then it loads back into the 
media db. I go to the client, and do a "saveset" recover, using the GUI 
client. I choose the proper date of the saveset; I specify the particular 
files I want; I re-direct the files to a holding directory. "Required 
volumes" shows me the volume I just scanned in. All things I've done 
before.

I load and mount the tape, and tell the recover to start. And it tells me 
the server can't find the volume. ...

Volume does show in the media db. Volume shows in drive (with the proper 
volume label). I can view the savesets on the volume, and there is the 
backup of the drive I am trying to recover from.

It *should* Just Work, yes?

So I missed something. But what?
