Hi Maurice,

See the ORMSTATE parameter of the UPDATE VOLHIST command, I think that it'l do 
the trick if you update your DB backp from vault back to mountable.

Objet: [ADSM-L] Change status of DBB volume from Vault to Mountable (forced)

Friends,

In an automated tape change procedure, every workday tapes are checked out
with a move drme.
But as you probably recognize, the people who needs to move the tapes to
the vault, sometimes don't...

In the late afternoon, all tapes are checked in and I start a script to
update all libvolumes found to readwrite. In DRM the status of the volumes
will change from Vault to Mountable.

The only kind of tapes I can't change are the DB backup tapes. They are not
in a stgpool, so upd vol can't work and move drme can't be used as the
status is Vault.

Does anyone knows a trick to update the DB Backup volume back from Vault to
Mountable ?

Thanks in advance,
Maurice van 't Loo
