Chris,
When we return our drmedia from offsite, we use the following command:
move drmedia * wherestate=vaultr tostate=onsiter
This takes any tape that is in vault_retrieve and moves to on_site_retrieve.
As a precaution, run a q drmedia * wherestate=vaultr to make sure you
have all the tapes in your possession that are in vaultr, otherwise you end
up
with a tape stuck offsite in an on_site_retrieve state.
