I don't understand how list media can show nothing at this point, unless you
did something to the catalog to remove them again.

Let's hope that doesn't happen again :-)

To remove everything:

Stop all bacula daemons and run the drop_bacula_database script to completely
delete the catalog.  Remove any labels from tapes by running

mt -f /dev/nst0 rewind
mt -f /dev/nst0 weof

for each tape.

Then recreate the bacula database and tables like you did initially.

The label command should do this.
