Thanks for the response.
However, this doesn't seem to be all I need to do. I did this command
but the volume still shows as being in-use/owned.
I had to manually changed the status to SCRATCH to release it.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Getting rid of ghost REMOTE volumes
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!
