Hi Experts , I have been  task to migrate data from 7 years retention Tapes to our new store once catalyst stores library.

The original tape library is already no hardware support and broken and it is also in a different CommCell. after merging the CommCell clients. I am able to see the Tapes storage policy copy ( the primary copy is on a disk storage which is also not recoverable any more.)

 

I am thinking to use aux copy but from  console it seem I can only copy the tape to another tape using the new tape library on loaner for migration purpose by HP. Is there a way to use the loaner tape library read the tapes and direct copy to the Store once catalyst stores?

You should be able to auxcopy to a new secondary copy in the migrated tape storage policy:

You can perform an auxiliary copy operation to a new secondary copy that is created after the migration

 

Did you try make a new copy for the migrated storage policy that points to your catalyst library?
