Subject: Cannot remove tapes from copy storage pool


Hi all

I have 2 tapes in the copy storage pool that I cannot get rid of.
When I try to do a "move data" command, it says that the tape has no data on
it.
When I try to do a "delete volume" command, it says that the tape still
contain data.
(What a contradiction!!!)

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove these 2 tapes from the
copy
storage pool?

Yours sincerely
David Lin
