Backupsets are not considered DRMEDIA by DRM. You can't use MOVE MEDIA on them 
either because they do not belong to a storage pool.
You would have to write your own scripts to look for the backupset tapes and 
then update the volhistory record for that tape with a
LOCATION= parameter.

You should be able to do a CHECKOUT LIBVOLUME on the newly created backupset 
tape. It's still part of the library inventory.

The only product I know of that can manage backupset volumes for vaulting is 
Autovault from http://www.coderelief.com

Joni,

My first question is are you licensed for the "Extended Edition" of TSM,
because it includes DRM support which will make your life much easier
when it comes to managing off site tapes and doing DR testing.  In
particular you would be using "move drmedia" commands instead of "move
media" commands. The "move media" commands are more useful for handling
on site primary pool tapes that need to be moved out side of the library
for whatever reason.  Whereas the "move drmedia" commands are designed
to do exactly what you are trying to do.

I sent you an email earlier with my contact info in it.  If you would
like feel free to call me and we can discuss these issues over the phone.
