NetWorker 7.4, on Win2003

I seem to be drawing a blank here. I set up a label template for my
library to use, and I want NetWorker to automatically label unlabeled

tapes, using this template, which assigns the tape to a specific pool. So

what to happen is is - if a job is executing, that is looking for pool

"642", and there are only unlabeled tapes in the library; is for NetWorker to automatically label one of the unlabeled tapes as being in pool "642",

using that label template.

I seem to not have set it all up properly, because my job sat there all

night, waiting for a tape in pool "642", with 4 unlabeled tapes in the
library, just waiting to be used.

The label template seems to be set up fine, because if I manually label a

tape in pool "642", it uses my label template.

So where I miss telling NetWorker to automatically label tapes when it

needs them? Would that be "Auto Media Management" property of the library? I can't test it right at this point, because the job finally started (now that it has a tape in pool "642", which I manually just labeled). What I want is for unlabeled tapes to be automatically labeled as pool "642"; I do have my tape devices listed as "Targets" in the properties of my media

pool "642".
