Did you put an LTO 5 barcode label on the tape, or did you re-use your 'old' LTO4 labels ?

Huh, in your first post you talk about barcode rules, but you are not using barcodes on the tapes ???

The library has a web interface, how are the tapes recognized when you view the library with the browser ?

Is the tape drive in your library even an LTO5 unit ?

Mmm...going back further than BE, is that drive detected in Windows Device Manager? If not, BE won't see it...
