Okay.. I see that you are using move media command, not move drmedia. Here's my finding. Before move media volume Status=full, Access=READ/WRITE, State=Mountable After move media(defult) Status=Full, Access=Read-Only, State=Mountable After you bring back and checkin as private Status=FULL, Access=Read-Only, State=Mountable
So based on this, I do not believe you need to do anything else. If you change it to to offsite after you checkin, doing restore, TSM will be complaining this tape is not found. Sung Y.
