Re: [ADSM-L] Removing volumes that TSM doesn't see

 John,
   If TSM thinks that the cartridges are already offsite, then you
should be able to remove them from the library using library commands.
See publication 96845 Chapter 4, Export Data Cartridges:

Subject: [ADSM-L] Removing volumes that TSM doesn't see

Hello,

TSM successfully checked out our list of 20 offsite volumes, but failed
to send 8 of them to the CAP (CAP was full of incoming scratch volumes,
I think). Now, all I know is the volume names that I need and their slot
numbers, but since TSM doesn't see them, I can't figure out how to get
the library robot to remove them.  How can I tell our STK L700 (or TSM)
to remove them?  Obviously, I do not want to visually look for these
things.  ;-)

Thinking of getting TSM to audit the library and check them back in, but
am afraid of changing the status of the volumes.  The TSM Admin is on
vacation and I am desperately trying to keep anyone from calling him,
including me.



With regards,
