First thing to check is do you have a pool that is designated as "scratch", not 
just named that.

"vmpool -listscratch" from the command line
In the GUI, you can click on a pool and pick change, there is a check box for 
the scratch pool.

Second, you will have to create a barcode rule to put inventoried tapes into 
the scratch pool.

Subject: [Veritas-bu] Problem with inserting new tapes.

When tapes are inserted into a newly build NetBackup environment, they
are getting pulled into the NetBackup pool instead of the scratch
pool.

I know there is something with the vm.conf on the master that needs to
be I set I believe...

What changes need to be made so when I insert new tapes that the robot
or master server have never seen before, so that they fall into the
scratch pool?
