I suggest reading this technote.
Nevermind the title wich deals with error code 94
But do checkout the bpmedialist -L ...
...and the vmquery -deassignbyid
...and the vmchange -p command
corrective actions.

SSO environment, 5.0MP1, Solaris master, 3 Solaris SAN media servers, 7 W2K
SAN media servers, LTO2 tape.
 
I have a number of media stuck in a funky state and I can't figure out how
to release it.
 
The java GUI shows the media assigned in a pool. From the "last mount" field
I'm certain there's nothing useful on these tapes.
 
vmquery acknowledges existence of the media.
 
bpexpdate operations yield "requested media id was not found in NB media
database and/or MM volume database.
 
Attempts to import with 'bpimport -create_db_info -id S00104' yield error
176. Detailed status says "Cannot import media id S00104, that media id is
already active on some other server."
 
I've run consistency checks on the master server with nothing out of the
ordinary.
 
I tried 'bpmedia -movedb -m S00104 -newserver nbumaster' It didn't give any
error, but it didn't seem to do anything either.
 
Any idea how I free this up?

There is no luck except where there is discipline.
