Bill, Hi. This is Don from the McData class. Try this DRM command for each of the volumes you've brought back, move drm vol# wherest=vault tostate=onsiter. You would execute this first for every tape you bring back, then check the tape into the library. I'm not 100% sure how tsm will respond when done in reverse. Just check your volume status after the move drm command, and/or your activity log.
