You will find that you can still read/write data to these volumes.  The last
use is just a record of how the volume was used the last time it was mounted
based on what I know.  I do not know for sure if move drmedia is a DRM
module only feature, but the "move drmedia" would be a better choice to
transfer tapes to/from the vault.

Hello, 
I am new to offsite backup concept. of TSM. Recent , I 
copied the primary storage pool to a copy storage pool. Then 
I made access offsite to these volumes belonging to copy pool. 
Last I checked-out them. Next day (just to try) I checked-in the offsite 
volumes 
and made "access" field as "readwrite". Now the point is: 

Before those operations, "q libv" output was: 

Library Name   Volume Name   Status       Owner        Last Use    Home
Element 
------------   -----------   ----------   ----------   ---------  
------------ 
              
3583LIB        101ACF        Private                   Data        4 10 


Now the output is: 

Library Name   Volume Name   Status       Owner        Last Use    Home
Element 
------------   -----------   ----------   ----------   ---------  
------------ 
3583LIB        101ACF        Private                               4 116 



What happened the "LAST USE"="Data" field of all check-ed out volumes? 
Is it the nature of the game or did I do something wrong? By the way volumes

stil 
contains data when I look output of "q vol" 
Regards,
