Hi

It seems you have not labeled your tapes.

Tapes can be labeled through "nwadmin" GUI or
thru command line.

To do it from command line:

Assuming that you want to label tapes in all 10 slots

#nsrjb -L -S 1-10 -b pool_name

When you run inventory, specify slot numbers so it will
not look for empty slots.

Hope I have understood the problem properly and this reply
helps you.

Thanks and regards
