Hi Chris,

you can do a move DRM * wherestate=...., however I found this was not a good way to do 
it. I found that writing a script, to write a script, that checks out (and in) every 
tape individually was much better. The problem was that sometimes I had a tape in a 
state that was, say mountable, but you don't won't to change it to notmountable.

Hello all,
            I am trying to improve our tape returns. I have a number of
Drtapes that get expired in blocks and want to be able to tell they system
that they are in the onsiteretrieve without having to do a 'move drmedia
xxxxxx tostate=onsiteretrieve' for every one, is there a way of inputting a
text file (as with checkin) or another way.
I am running server on NT4 sp6a with TSM 3.7.4 with the DR lic.

Can any one offer any advice, or is it a matter of returning each tape
individually?

Ta for the advice...and Happy Christmas.
