Hy Rob,
I don't know how you deleted the tape from database. If with "discard data =
yes" the data includung the copies are deleted from database. Than you don't
have the data on copy-storage-pool.
If a volume is damaged and a move data doesn't get all data from that tape
make a 'restore volume xxx' (there is a preview-option) to rebuild the data
from the copy-storagepool to the primary-storage-pool.
After this procedure all data should be available from primary-storage-pool
(the damaged volume is set to 'unavailable' and can be taken out of the
library).

Best wishes 

Chris
