    Make sure that your tape library is configured correctly, i.e., the I/O slot is enabled.  If the I/O slot is configured correctly, then you should have one less tape slot.  For example, your library has 24 slots including the I/O slot.  If the I/O slot is enabled correctly, BE should only see 23 slots.  The I/O slot will be invisible to BE.

    Once the I/O slot is enabled, use import/export to move tapes to/from the regular slots to the I/O slots.

1> You have to import the tapes from the IO station and all can be loaded in the slots.

 

2> YOu don't have the eject option in the library, eject option is used in the stand alone tape drives. You have to import or export in the library.
