Schedule a Tape Slot Scan Instead of Inventory

We have a DL6020 and the Inventory takes too long to run. We are using bar coded media and all media has been imported and cataloged.

I need to know how to schedule a scan of the slots in the tape library so Backup Exec know which tapes are in which slots without having to run an inventory.

Thank you,
Logan

This has been proposed on the "Ideas" are of the forum

head on over there and give it a "Thumbs Up"  and it may very well appear in a future release

Why are you wanting to schedule a scan?  The only scenario that I am aware of would be after a bulk load, in which case you would do a scan when you are done.  Otherwise, if media are imported & exported via BE, then BE should always know what is in the library.
