Rahi_raj,
We created a Volume Pool called "BadMedia". Whenever we encounter a tape that can't be read or written anymore, we move the volume to the BadMedia pool.
I was once asked why there were tape serial numbers missing in our media (the tapes were missing since before I started working here), and decided to keep track of all destroyed media in the future by keeping them defined to NetBackup this way.
