'UPDate Volume ... ACCess=DEStroyed' or ACCess=UNAVailable.
But it's best to deal with the tape data in whatever manner is
appropriate and then get it out of the library so that a good
tape can be available.
once you checkout bad tape , and will be not using , there is no question to

Hi Matt:
Collocation is at the storage pool so you do not need to 'carve up' your disk. If the
original destination is disk they files can all go to a big disk pool, then separate
out via collocation when they are migrated off to tape.
