UNIX and VMS. we are currently making an IBM product do this work
on our 3080, and no-one is happy with the situation. advice on
where to beg/borrow/steal or even (gasp) buy such a package would
be appreciated. advice on which system to get would be nice too.

I happen to have just finished looking over the 1987/1988 DECUS Program Lib.
catalog, and remember seeing a tape library manager.  It is on DECUS tape
VAX-17 - TLP: Tape Library Program.  I haven't used it, so I can't vouch for
how good/bad it is.  Hope this helps.
