Has anyone seen the following problem with NB 4.5,
Disk Storage Unit, migration to tape using multiple
bpduplicates each with own  bidfile. 

The problem is, if I have 4 bpduplicates running, each
with it's own bidfile (each bidfile containing unique
image ids to migrate from disk to tape). Instead of a
bpduplicate keeping a tape mounted, the entire time it
processes the bid file, it releases the tape, and
another bpduplicate grabs the tape, and starts using
it. 

I've heard that this use to work, but was broken in
MP6. That bpdupliate is ignoring the UNMOUNT_TIMEOUT
option in bp.conf. And that this problem is fixed in MP7.
