Hello list,

I have a damaged primary storage pool volume.  Fortunately, the data is
on copy pool volumes.  I found a nicely detailed procedure for handling
the restoral of the data from mail-archive.

_tape_volume.doc

The part that I do not see how to do "cleanly" is recalling the specific
volumes from offsite using "move drmedia" commands.  I know I can
manually add the volumes to the "vaultretrieve" list and remove them
from the "vault" inventory report.  But that doesn't feel right.  Am I
missing something?

Thanks,
Larry McNutt
