Data Protector Express - Cancel job if no media

Hi,

I have DPE installed in a remote office. I have tasked a local user to daily chance over the backup tape.....problem is sometimes it gets forgotten.

Problem I have is DPE issues a load media request overnight and then waits...forever.
My user comes in next day and remembers to change tape. So now DPE has a tape and starts running the overnight job immediately and ejects tape when finished. So I now have the problem where there is no media loaded for tonights backup.

My question is, how can I automatically cancel the job if no media is loaded??

Thanks,
Gary.
