Mount Media Command
The Mount Media command is used to mount the specified media, by media label to a
transport. To request a specific drive include the Guardian name for the Drive (example
$TAPE1) within the mount request. If no tape drive name is specified, the tape label
will be mounted in the first available drive, if any. If no drive is available, the request is
placed in a queue. For details, see
