Sounds like you need to do some combination using the Atl read server as stated above..

Duplicate < SiteA Tape Set Alt Read Server to SiteA Media Server
This should make it use the copy in SiteA for the tape Out, as well as define the media server to use.
Remember this will only take effect for any NEW slps the ones written prior to the configuration change will not get the new configurations. You might try (and this is a guess) if you can deavtivate the media server in SiteB when you make the tape copies NBU could choose to use the one in SiteA since it would be the only one available.
