Bringing offsite tapes back and reclaiming them onsite is much faster; but, of 
course, then that data is not offsite.

Richard, from time to time I've had to do this.  After checking in the tapes 
and updating them to r/o or r/w TSM doesn't always use them for the source on a 
'move data'.  Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't.  It acts as if the tapes 
are not in the library even after I've verified them.
Would you know any reason why?
TSM 5.5.3 - LTO4 library.
