Configuration.

Solaris 8, standalone drives connected via scsi.


Question.

I have some tapes that have useless backups on them due to an =
configuration problem of my st.conf file.  How do I go about changing =
the status of these tapes from active to available.  Basically I want to =
be able to reuse media.  If I try to delete the tapes in hopes to =
re-label them (making them available again to netbackup), I receive the =
error message, unable to delete the tape is assigned.  How would I =
accomplish this?

Thanks,

StickyBit.
