I am going to say this - and I am not happy. Contact EMC through their SR process. They are very adept as helping with these types of issues.
We have had several Tapes being locked and they were able to Dial in and correct the issue. They also can provide guidance on how to do what you want. We have a similar configuration, but I have not tested the DR tapes yet.
