Hi Ruud,
        If you move to onsiteretrive  then it will return back to onsite
means can reuse..... inorder to reuse it will delete volume.......out from
ADSM database...
You can use that tape as a scratch and will not be able to see in q vol
until it was used again...and from move .......remove=untileefull it will
move to i/o slot if slot is available..
        So if you did not take it physically to offsite yet, it will be in
i/o slot need to check in again
        Hope this help
regards,

Matthew

thanks for the quick response.

(q volhist type=dbb) only shows 4 tapes.
drmdbbackupexpiredays is set to 7. If uya005 was a DBB volume then uya005
should be available as from tomorrow !!!!
but this is not the case as uya005 contained client data:
copy storage pool STG_DATA_1C

For all copy storage pools (Delay Period for Volume Reuse) is set to 1.
why should it be greater or equal to drmdbbackupexpiredays ???

thanks.
