I get something like that sometimes - if you View -> Diagnostic Mode,
then go to devices and select the properties of that device, then go to
the volume tab, you can see if there's any more informative messages

The volume tab is still there in non-Diagnostic Mode, but more
information is available with it on

Subject: [Networker] What is this Media Emergency?


So today, one of my tape libraries sent me this error:

> NetWorker media: (critical) TapeAlert flag "" has been posted for 
\\.\Tape6

Which is just a whole deluge of information. :-) Any one know of a way I

can set a notification to actually give me some details on what the 
problem is? The library console had a message indicating a problem with
a 
tape label (while I was trying to label the tapes, in NetWorker).
