Okay... I ran the summary and I do NOT see the tape in question, LL1189
in the summary report.  I have ran the unfreeze command against all
media servers to ensure that I wasn't missing something and none of the
media or master servers seem to think they own the media, but it is
physically in the library and shows up in the Media in the GUI.

Dan -

You will have to run the command against the particular media server
that 'owns' the tape.

bpmedia -unfreeze -m LL1189 -h <mediasrv>

If you run bpmedialist -summary, you will be shown a listing of tapes
owned by each media server (as well when those tapes will expire).  Find
the tape you want ot unfreeze in the list and that is the media server
that you need to run the command against.

Inventory the robot.
What error do you get when you try to unfreeze them?
What version of NB are you using?

You do not provide enough background information.
