If you have BootStrap.
Scan in the Boot Strap which will bring the client configurations and
the MM database.
Through MM databse you can find out which Tapes has Index files.
Once you this 
Run nsrck -L7 "mm/dd/yy hh:mm:ss" clientname
Nsrck -L6

You will have  your indexes back.

Dear list,

I am faced with the task of scanning several hundred DLT tapes back into
a 
legato server that lost its indexes when it was upgraded from version 5
to 
6.1.3 many years ago.

I can write a basic batch file that loads and tape without mounting, 
executes scanner and unloads it, but the problem I have is that scanner 
pauses at the end with a prompt to put the next tape in or exit. I want 
scanner to exit once finished so the script can unload the tape and 
continue working, there doesnt appear to be any command line switch to 
make scanner terminate once finished.

To my mind, this is a massive oversight on Legatos behalf - scanning
tapes 
is a tedious process at best, using an autoloader is the obvious answer.

Cheers,
Matt
