This is quite simple : assuming you are not using dynamic
device sharing, when you edit the jukebox, you should find
the tape device list.

The amount of row equals the number of device.
Line #0 means physical device 0
Line #1 means physical device 1 and so on.
Edit/Ajust corresponding line with device driver name.

eg : based on inq/sjimm test :
Tape2=Phys dev 0,
Tape3=Phys dev 1,
Tape1=Phys dev 2,
Tape0=Phys dev 3,

from 

\\.\Tape0
\\.\Tape1
\\.\Tape2
\\.\Tape3

to

\\.\Tape2
\\.\Tape3
\\.\Tape1
\\.\Tape0

They are *not* the same; I was wrong. What INQUIRE is showing as drive 
Tape0, the library is showing as drive #5.

So you are correct. My apologies for mis-reading it at first.

I don't know how to edit the drive list in the jukebox ...
