    The media got frozen on 10/30/2009, but according to vmquery the media was added today?
    Did you by any chance did a manual deassign and then deleted and re-added the tape to Media Manager?
    This should never be done - as you can see: although you managed to get rid of the assigned status in volDB, the media is still frozen in mediaDB. This causes major database inconcistencies.
    Unfreezing it should clear the status and delete the entry from mediaDB.
    bpmedia -unfreeze -m 012345 -h xxxxxxxx

    Re-label the tape via the GUI - remove the tick to verify label or use '-o' with bplabel.
