Try this:
Update the access to READONLY instead of OFFSITE (even if you haven't
brought the tape back yet).
run: AUDIT VOLUME XXXXXX FIX=YES
If there really is 0 data, it won't call for a mount, it will just give you
a message about fixing inconsistent data.
Then the tape should go to EMPTY status.
I just cleaned up 6 tapes that way; we are TSM on AIX 4.2.1.15.

Subject: bad tape
Hello everyone!
I have a weird situation and I wasn't quite sure what to do. I have a bad
tape that is vaulted. It has 0 data on it, but it won't delete from TSM.
The reuse delay is way past expiration, so it isn't being held by that.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!!
