Yes, it would allow to highly automatic the request for new tapes. If a =

tape is empty, bacula reads the barcodes (native or simulated), and if =

an unused tape is found, it runs the label command with all the =

necessary parameters.

By the way can bacula automatically "move" an empry/purged volume say =

in the "short" pool to the "long" pool if this pool runs out of volume =

space?

Is it much work to implement the first/second wish? ;-)
