I assume you have a barcode reader on your archive and you also have barcode lables on your tapes. In this case you should never label your tapes directly. You normally issue the update slots command after adding tapes and the aotochanger is done scanning the labels. Then after that completes issue label barcodes command in bconsole and put all tapes into the Scratch pool. Do not worry about already labeled tapes being in the list. Bacula will only grab and label the tapes that are in the changer that are not in the bacula database. After this completes and bacula needs a tape it will grab it from the Scratch pool and move it into the current pool.
