You can't run a move drm on a tape marked vault. You just have to Check it in as Steve and I have said and then update it. DRM will take care of the vault status from there.
I would think your offsite tape vendor has a way of contacting them, via web or phone and telling them to bring back additional tapes right? Iron Mountain has securesync where you can do additional requests.
