Hi all. In our CommVault enviroment we have two libraries. One library is older and hasnt been used in over two years and another library which is our main library that we use to write data to tape. We have lots of old tapes that were apart of the old library that we have kept around due to data retention policies. Now that all of the old tapes are old enough where we would no longer need to perform a restore, we are in the process of removing to destroy them. As we gather the tapes to be destroyed, I want to remove them from CommVault as they are still listed in there. When I try to remove tapes that are not expired in CommVault, it wants me to delete the contents first. When I try to delete the contents, it wants me to put the media in a scratch pool and since the library is deconfigured in CommVault, there is no scratch pool to put them into thus I can't delete the tapes. Also, when I try to right click and select Set Scratch, it gives me the error "There is no active controller for this library." We have already physically removed the library and do not want to reconnect it.
Is there anyway to remove media from CommVault that is not set as scratch without having the library active? I would like to get the old media removed as it serves no purpose anymore and would like to keep things clean. We are running CommVault 8 w/ SP5. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
-Michael Richter
