We had some tapes that were created on an old server, that has since been decommissioned 12 months ago.
A restore has been requested, and we have tried, but it failed with no storage units available.
Checking the tapes, they seem to still have all the old attributes - HCART, old volume pool etc ....
So I did a deassignbyid, then a vmdelete, then added them back into the old pool, the new volume pool, and HCART2, and then imported them, leaving the image stuff intact.
This all worked.
When I tried to do the restore again, it failed with - request terminated because of volume pool mismatch.
I tried to do a vmchange - vmchange -new_v new volume group -m volser -mt HCART2 -rt ACS
this failed with - Could not change media ID volser: robot type and volume group mismatch (81)
Is it still getting volume pool info from the image database, and if so, little short of removing all evidence of the 2 tapes, and doing an import, is there anything that I can do ?
