Brightstor 11.1 Error when trying to erase tapes

"8021: The tape is protected by media management". The help files are
singularly unhelpful. Rebooting the server allows tape to be erased.
Stopping BrightStor engins does not allow tape to be erased. Server OS is
W2K with current patches. Removable Storage Management is _not_ loaded.
Anyone have a solution that will allow me to erase tapes without boot the
server nightly? Thanks.

Don, I am experiencing the same issue. Have you stumbled upon a solution yet?

Thanks.
