If the command was issued before the mount command, which in turn triggers
the Autochanger change script,
that would not be a problem. Either there would be no change to the slots,
or the newly inserted tapes would be identified as being on the changer.
When bacula can't find a tape in the changer (slot=0) with sends an email
(once an hour?) requesting manual intervention.
I was hopping it could be done via a script called before the email bacula
sends this email.
I believe it was just a matter of trying a last resort update before
requesting manual assistance.
I thought of the crontab solution as well, but I'm afraid it can cause some
unexpected disruption. But I might try it if can't find a cleaner way of
doing it.
