Script to check loaded tapes

This page shows the script used to check to make sure the right tapes are loaded and if so, updates the volume database using an undocumented command. This releases you from having to manually syncronize the tapes once you load them when they come back from offsite. The output mailed from the script can be seen here.

Please let me know if you have any suggestions or improvements for this script.
