But they could have been checked out of TSM with remove=no and could possibly still be defined as storage pool volumes and still contain data. Always "know" the TSM state of tapes that you're going to do mtlib stuff to, like changing categories.

I would like to have the robot eject these tapes and I thought the mtlib command would be the answer. I cannot figure out how to do it though. Any suggestions? thanks, -shawn Shawn L.
