You just needed to go to the existing VG and do a mass move to standalone. Then inventory the new robot.

Netbackup 6.5.4 on master server. Server connected to an I2K robot. Robot went down and was replaced with a new one. All the tapes were transferred over to the new robot. Drive and robot configuration deleted on Netbackup master server and rescan was done. Robot and drives were picked up. All in TLD control and all looked OK. Ran robot inventory and "volume not unique in database" error was encountered. Even pulling in the tapes via the cap still produces the same error. Had to manually add each tape (128 tapes) one by one. Selected move and changed standalone to robot. Selected the correct slot and added the tape. Then right click tape and do a rescan and add . What is the quickest way to get tapes back without going this manually? The tapes were still protected so deleting them and then doing inventory was not an option. What is the CLI options? The issue seems to be that the volume group changed.
