Perfect. I am guessing that volume is an under documented option. Andy Huebner

If you delete the volhist TYPE=REMOTE entries, the next time you do an AUDIT LIBRARY from the library client they will re-sync all the volume information from the client and build new TYPE=REMOTE entries for only the volumes that the client has assigned. Or run this select command to a file and then feed it back in on your library manager: select 'del volhist type=remote tod=+0 force=yes volume=' || volume_name from volhistory where devclass='<devclass naem in upper case>' Bill Boyer "A life?

We only need to delete the ones with a specific device class. Is there a way to accomplish this? If we delete all of the remote types from the volhist, will the in use volumes generate new history if we delete their old history?

The library manager server says the tape is owned/used by a "remote" system/server. When I check the "remote" system, it says it knows nothing about the tape. How can I convince the library manager server that the tape is gone/deleted/kaput so I can relabel the tape and reuse it ? DELETE VOLUME ... DISCARDDATA=YES does nothing. Is there some kind of hidden "force=yes IreallyMeanIt=yes" option I can use ? This e-mail (including any attachments) is confidential and may be legally privileged.
