Hashim, Shukrie asked how to move data from volume 002081 which had
multiple read errors without impact on the database

Well you can try cleaning the drive, you can try different drives with
move data,  but if there are real bad sectors on the tape then you will
only be able to get any remaining good data off the tape

To do that  try

AUDIT VOLUME  002081 FIX=YES

then

MOVE DATA  002081

If the volume is readable at all the audit should mark the unreadable
files as damaged and the  move data should skip the damaged files and move
the good data.
Then to get the rest of the data follow the advice you have aleady been
given.
