Yeah, I had to add that tape drive to the pool I want to recover from, in

that pool starts tonight.
That's what I'm worried about ...
It won't backup to it -- but it may sit there all night asking for a
tape to be mounted in that drive!
The trick I use for such things is to disable the tape drive until I
need it for a recovery -- since, I have to manually load the tape into
it anyway.
