Is there a way to "erase" tapes via TSM? (Or AIX?)

We have changed servers and tape format (from TSM4.1, AIX 4.something
and
a 3575 library) and I am on a quest to "scrub" the old tapes so we can
try
to sell them instead of having to destroy them.


Nancy - See "Tape, erase" in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts.

The tapeutil command has the means to do that.
