I
use the attached for this.
It does exactly what
you describe (walking through all media in robotic control or taking a list of
media on the command line).
The step you're
missing is vmquery -deassignbyid. Otherwise, you've got the right
steps.

I've run into a
problem where my scratch volume pool is empty. However, I have tons of
empty tapes (can easily list with Aptare) that just happen to be assigned to
other specific pools. I can manually run bpimmedia on these empty tapes to
verify that there are no images on them. But if I try to change the volume
group on them via the GUI to scratch (or the Netbackup pool), I get the "cannot
change volume pool for assigned media (91)" error.
If there are no
images on the tape, what's the problem? I thought once images expired on
tapes, they were supposed to automatically be kicked back out to a scratch pool
anyway. I've found a few places where I can manually force a tape into a
different volume, but it is pretty strongly suggested that you *not* do it that
way.
Any
suggestions?
