remember that the only way to restore/retreive data (i think)
that is on any adsm tape is to have the database. So delete the volume
,and if you can't degauss the data tapes, maybe you can degauss
the db backups. (just throwning ideas out) i know its not a good one :)

Hi Chaps,
does anybody know a method of deleting data on tape cartridges (3590)
without rewriting and destroying them? We need to wipe out round about 200
tape cartridges an looking for a efficient method to do this.
Thanks
Uwe
