After you mount this, you do not need to do any updates because you already
did that(update the volume to readonly).
Once the tape access is offsite, and if you update access to readonly the
state of the tape will change from VAULT to MOUNTABLE.

I do recommend that all of your primary tape pool(s) are updated with acces
destroyed.   Happy DR test.
