If you can physically remove the tape volume from the physical
library, using the library management interface, the following should
work for you:

remove tape from library - in a way that the library no longer knows about it.
 i.e., don't just reach in and pull it out, or it will remain in the library's
 internal inventory.

checkout libvol ... checkl=no remove=no
put the tape into the bulk I/O port
checkin libvol ... search=bulk status=private
