Thanks for all the replies, most said to run bplabel. I did run bplabel
and received this error:
=20
C:\Documents and Settings\veritas>bplabel -ev att160 -d hcart
Request terminated because of volume pool mismatch
=20
Any ideas?

I had a tape accidentally get used as a catalog backup tape last week.
I have deassigned, deleted, expidated, you name it I have tried it, but
they still FREEZE when used for backups as the system still thinks they
contain Catalog backups. =20

I searched the archives and searched google and didn't see a resolution.
Anyone had success doing this?

Thanks,

Jim
