You could do any number of things. I personally do an unmount on Monday
so that my operator can remove it without resistance. However, something
has to be done -- an AlwaysOpen drive that is not unmounted can be a
real problem, as I've seen some cases where you can sneak the tape out
of there and put in a new one without Bacula noticing. The next write
clobbers the new tape.
