I am having the same type of problem running TSM 5.1.5.4 on z/OS 1.1. Except my tapes are in my tapepool not the offsite copypool. I just tried the procedure you described and I still have the problem. I have not even looked at my OFFSITE pool, yet. Is anyone else experiencing this?

When I try to do a "move data" command, it says that the tape has no data on it. When I try to do a "delete volume" command, it says that the tape still contain data. (What a contradiction!!!) Does anyone have any suggestions on how to remove these 2 tapes from the copy storage pool?
