The Remove Media Volumes from BRM (RMVMEDBRM) command removes a media volume from the BRMS media inventory. A volume is removed because of age, error rate, shipment to another location, and so on.

Note: Media can only be removed if it was previously added using the ADDMEDBRM command. All information about the volume including content and statistics, is deleted when the volume is removed. Also the total number of volumes in BRMS is decremented.

To use this command, you must have the Backup Recovery and Media Services for iSeries, 5722-BR1, licensed program installed.
