In an automated tape library, you use optical barcode labels to specify
the magnetic tape labels. This is done at the time you check them in.
The manual says:

Examples

Task

Label tapes in a library named AUTO automatically as you are checking the
volumes in.

Command:

     label libvolume auto search=yes labelsource=barcode
      checkin=scratch overwrite=yes


The only way to change the label of a tape that is already in the
library is to check it out, change its barcode label, and then check it
back in as a new tape.

As long as you are using optical barcode labels on the tape cartridges,
overwrite=yes is OK, if you always use it with labelsource=barcode.
