NW 7.4.2, Win2003.

So I had a whole lot of corruption in my media db - the "WISS" errors 
showing in the log. So I did a mmrecov from before the earliest date of 
the WISS, and no I see no more WISS errors. Yay! Slight problem in that I 
had to use a bootstrap tape from 2 months ago, but the corruption was 
showing up as far back as 1 month ago. (also, the 2 month old tape was 
on-hand ...)

Problem - I can't seem to re-label tapes. I have 2 pools - A and B. I load 
in my tapes; I set the mode on a tape in pool A to be recyclable. I issue:

ECHO yes | nsrjb -v -j LIBRARY -R -b A -L 01111947

(which is the label I want). And it complains of "Error: Duplicate volume 
name `01111947'. Select a new name or remove the original volume".

I know I used to be able to do this, and without having to delete the 
volume entry first. I would mark tapes as recyclable, and re-label myself 
(I prefer to do it this way, rather than just waiting for the tape to 
become recyclable, so I know for sure that I have empty tapes of the right 
pool available), using the above command. I have a script that would do 
this.

It must be something simple that I am not recalling, but what? A setting 
somewhere?

(sorry, it's been a long couple days)
