If an offsite tape (COPYPOOL) is destroyed then it is simple.
Do a DEL VOL blah discarddata=yes, for the destroyed volume.
When that is complete then do a Backup STG blah blah and this
will recopy the data (and any data not copied) from the onsite pool
to a new tape on the offsite pool.

The TSM DB keeps track and knows that the copy has been deleted so it
recopies at next backup stg process run.

You can't do a Move Data because the original volume is destroyed.

I did a quick search of some stuff I have and can't find an answer,
plus I
just don't have time to sit and look this morning so I need a bit of
help.
If an offsite tape is destroyed what are the steps to deal with this. I
know
it's not the same for a primary stg pool.

Thanks,
