From Opers email, print the OUTGOING tape list or lists from the email with today's date. The message/messages will be highlighted red and Opers should get a page on the pager. The tapes on the list should be in the ATL's I/O convenience station, or already in the outgoing side of the OSG carousel.
If you can't locate the tapes on the out list, send email to osg-nsam-l@lists.ufl.edu to inform NSAM staff.
