replication clarification

[mete]

Replication only uploads/downloads the tapes in the offline shelf. It does not work with the installed tapes, am I right ?

Yes, it works for the fresh-created tapes.

Is it possible that this is done automatically during tape change or load/unload to a drive ? For example, I would like to keep only one tape locally, so whenever the library is instructed to load a tape into the drive it should be downloaded from the cloud, then the tape drive works, and when the tape is unloaded from the drive, it should be uploaded back to the cloud.

Sadly no.
