Thanks! :)

I in fact do have an autochanger, and it loaded the correct tape 
autmomatically.  You can see that it unloaded slot 7 and then loaded 
slot 3.  I verified this with mtx-changer list and saw that the correct 
tape was loaded.  When I unmount the tape, it gets unloaded back to the 
changer, and then I mount it again, and it proceeds to do its job.  
Would I enable debugging on the director or the sd to troubleshoot this?

Heres the log before and after I remounted the tape
