Hello,

Error conditions in our STK silo have caused numerous tapes to be marked
with an error status and as read-only.  We have been unable to move the
data to another volume or reuse the tape by changing the access mode back
to read/write.  We would like to reuse these tapes by returning them to the
ACSLS scratch pool.  If we delete a volume discarding the data, is the
database updated as to the unavailability of this data?

Anyone have a recommendation of how best to handle this situation?

Thanks
