Answer:
Check out this site.
http://www.hiarc.com/index.html
$450 for 3 commands:
jbinit: to initialize the jukebox
jbstatus: to tell jukebox status/tape locations
movejb: to move tape from magazine to DLT driv
Also, Legato (Solstice Backup) or NetBackup (Solstice Enterprise Backup) both
handle tape stackers/robots.

Answer:
No.
