How to choose right tape drive on cluster

Hi all,

I have a 2 node cluster running V5.1. Each node has a locally connected tape
drive.

How (in a script) do I determine which is the local tape drive to backup to?
ie. If the backup job is running on node 1 then I want to use node 1's tape
drive, otherwise I want to use node 2's tape drive.

I guess I could hard code it depending on the value of `hostname`.

TIA,
Mark.
