NAME

       backup-loaded  -  tell  the  chiark-backup system what to do with a new
       tape

SYNOPSIS

       backup-loaded [TAPEID]

DESCRIPTION

       backup-loaded: this tells the scripts that a currently unlabelled  tape
       should be treated as tape X: eg:
       backup-loaded b3
       will  cause  it  to treat it as tape ‘b3’.  NB: this won’t override the
       TAPEID label written on the tape; it’s just  for  use  with  previously
       unused  tapes.   This  applies only to the next time the backup scripts
       are invoked.  You can say just
       backup-loaded
       to go back to the default behaviour, which is to fail if the  tape  has
       no TAPEID.

OPTIONS

       TAPEID Treat the tape as label TAPEID
