Two basic ways to do this.
1. delete volume volname discarddata=yes
wil accomplish what you say, next time the data that was "deleted" will be
recreated.
2. If this is a primary tape pool then you can do:
restore volume volname preview=yes
then look at actlog after this process finishes. It will show you all the
copytapes needed to recreate the primary tape. Get all thses tapes and put in
library and run command again without the preview=yes and it will make pold
tape as destroyed and copy data to new tape. Old volume will not actually be
deleted until all data is restored.
Your method used depends on importance of data nd your time/trouble parameters.

We are using TSM 4.1.0.
We have several tapes in our sequential access storage pool that have been
accidentally overwritten with data from other applications. If we mark those
tapes as "Destroyed" will the next incremental job backup the files that were
on those tapes?
Our guess is that it would, because the database would know what data was on
those tapes.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
