pulled drive from damaged library

Hi guys,

We've got a library that's been damaged as a result of water ingress. We've pulled the drives from it, and attached them to the backup server as standalone drives. However, it still insists that they are in a library. I've tried deleting the library and drives from backup Exec, but I'm not sure exactly what to do and how to recreate the drives as standalones.

Any suggestions or advice?

 

thanks in advance.
