Send Volume Tag
The Send Volume Tag command (B6h) is a request for the library to transfer a volume
tag template. The template corresponds to a VOLSER label template and is used by
the library to search for desired elements. A subsequent Request Volume Element
Address command is used to transfer the results of this search.
