Provided I understood your question correctly, you just `umount` the current tape first, physically change the cartridge, label the new one, mount it and then the job continues all by itself. I'm not sure about labeling a new tape, but changing the tape when a job is blocked on a wrong tape is a routine operation on my site which has a single-tape LTO-4 device. If this is just a matter of changing a tape from a single-tape device, while the devic status is blocked already works for sure. The problem comes when we need to perform a write operation (labelling a new tape, for example) when the device is in a blocked status. The Label operation should be able to perform, when executed manually, even if the device is blocked. Many operators are performing backups on a single-tape device, so there must be a way to do it. I can do this on many other systems. --
