you have to define a reclamation stgpool if you want to reclame the stgpool
with only one tape drive.
now my answer to your question: if you have a copy stgpool defined, you can
"MOVE DATA" to a volume in the copy pool, marked it readonly to prevent
further writing, delete this bad volume and then define a replcaement volume
to you stgpool, then do "RESTORE VOLUME".
