Thanks for the responses. I tried to do Patrial Inventory Update on the LM
followed by Full Inventory Update on LM and it did not work. Then i inserted
the damaged tape into recovery bin and put back the library to AUTO after
the gripper completed the inventory check, i used the following mtlib
command

root:>#mtlib -l/dev/lmcp0 -C -VS02534 -s FF00 -t FF10

and the tape was ejected. The problem is now resolved.

Thanks
Mobeen
