So it depends on the Hardware vendor.

I have EMC, so I have the ability to run an STC and send commands to the DLm to 
see what is on what tape drives.

I would think other hardware vendors might have a similar interface.

Or could operations have a dedicated console logged on to the controller of the 
tape drive and see it that way?

Or do you have a software tool like CA-Vantage that can do that easily?
