I just use the Tape Library GUI and place back in the slot and just update the inventory manually.
Although, I must admit I have only ever had 1 tape stuck in a drive, and that was due to a heating problem ...... or should I say "lack" or cooling problem :-)

Sometimes I have had to remotely logon to the media server and use the "mt" command to rewind and eject the tape. Then I was able to use robtest to place it back into its proper slot. This happens when the robotic control host does not have access to the tape drive.

I am just curious how many of you remotely handle tapes that get stuck in a drive. Job fails, or the drive goes down etc. I'm sure most use robtest but was wondering if any other methods are used.
