Hi
I would suggest following ..
1). First remove it from TSM internal inventory by following since TSM
thinks it still in library .
checkout libvolume libraryname rem=no checklabel=no
2). Now run your checkin but make sure make it private.
checkin libv libraryname search=bulk checkl=yes stat=prive
Good luck

Subject: [ADSM-L] Returning 3592 w/o losing data
A 3592 cartridge was removed from our 3584 by a CE some time ago. It may
have been stuck in a drive. After that Operations lost the cartridge for
some time, but recently found it. TSM had marked the volume UNAVAILABLE
due to 1 write error, but the 3584 no longer lists it in its inventory.
There are files on the cartridge that we need, so I plan to return the
cartridge to the 3584. Will the correct procedure be just like returning
an OFFSITE volume to a library? That is; after the cartridge is placed
in a library slot by the changer, 'Assign' it to a logical library on
the 3584; then run 'checkin libv <library-name>
<volume-name> status=private' ? (I realize I will have to change
its access to read-only, run audit vol, etc.)
[The point of all this -->] Is there anything I could do, by mistake,
that would make the files on the cartridge permanently gone?
With my thanks and best wishes,
