I would look at getting another offsite vendor!  Looks like they want
you to do part of their work.  You should be able to tell them "Send me
tapes xxx, yyy and zzz tomorrow".   This is introducing more manual
steps in the process and more possibility of confusion (lost tapes, 
misplaced tapes, etc.).

BTW: How will you know what slot they have put your tape in??

Hi everyone,

We have a small problem in that our vaulting company only references tapes
by slot number, not by volume serial number.  So, we'll need to keep some
kind of database of what tapes are offsite and in which slots.  We will be
using DRM, and I was thinking we could update the database when DRM admin
commands run, such as move drm, etc.  I was wondering if anyone has come up
with a script or other solution.  I saw some general references in the
archives, but an actual script, or something to help me along the path
would be really appreciated.


Thanks!
adam
