Is the tape in "readonly" or "Offsite" status? I found that tapes will not scratch unless they are in "readwrite" status.

I have a weird situation and I wasn't quite sure what to do. I have a bad tape that is vaulted. It has 0 data on it, but it won't delete from TSM. The reuse delay is way past expiration, so it isn't being held by that. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks!! Joni Moyer Systems Programmer [EMAIL PROTECTED] (717)975-8338
