Is your LTO3 drive of type 'HCART3'?  And your LTO4 drive of type
'HCART4'? 

Inventory is just done with barcodes.  Do you have a barcode rule so
that your LTO4 media is brought in as type 'HCART4'? (or whatever type you
have set your LTO4 drive to).

For instance my DEFAULT rule brings in tapes as HCART3, but I have a rule
for cleaning tapes that brings them in as HC3_CLN.
