    OK here is the solution by default the the Quantum i6 out the box only allows the injecting of the media from the MAP vai the LCD screen on the front panel. You have to use the robots interface to change this behaviour. Select Library then on the right hand side under the operations panel select Configuration then settings, In the Settings popup under "IE Assignment Mode" change the setting from "Local UI Assignment to "Remote UI/HOST Assignment".

    Just goes to show everyday is a school day. Thanks to everyone who responded your guidance is greatly appreciated.:smileyhappy:

You did select the 'Empty media Access Port Prior to update' ick box didn't you ????

If you did, I would just reinventory the library but fist move the tapes in NBU to standalone.

Move the tapes to standalone ... select in GUI, right click -> move -> untick the box that says 'Volume is in a robotic library'

Then re-inventory library

    Many thanks for your response. Yes I have ticked "Update Volume configuration " and "Empty media access point prior to update" The tape is currently assigned to an offsite Volume group and the tapes that I am trying to inventory is in the MAP

      Can we see what the robot reports w.r.t. MAP contents?
      Please show us output of 's p' in robtest.

       

      If may ask ask a silly question here - can you confirm that there are sufficient empty slots in the robot for the tapes in the MAP? 
      Here output of 'vmcheckxxx -rn <robot-number> -rt tld' will help.  
      You may want to redirect the output to a .txt file.

        + vmquery -m <media id> output for one of the tapes that is in the MAP and doesn't import into the library
