Trying to do that now, but it failed to load/mount the tape I labeled...
It threw an error when it attempted to mount the tape... (I hate tape
libs when they screw up !!!)

I've had to open the library, remove the tapes in the drives, power it
off and back on... 

Waiting now for it to re-initialize and see if it mounts the tape and
starts a session..
