How can I get rid of/delete/release volumes that were associated with a
TSM server that no longer exists?

For example, here is the history of a volume.  The last use was to the
server CAPELLA which has been decommissioned.  It also happens to be a
database backup for that now defunct server.

Can I just initialize it with extreme prejudice ?   Will it let me ?   A
simple delete volume doesnt work since this server doesn't own it
eventhough it is the library owning server!
