As a result, that tapes are unusable until the retension time expires.
Luckily, there is something you can.
Open a command screen on your DP server and browse to the folder c:\Program Files\OmniBack\bin. Probably best put it in the path, so you can execute commands from anywhere.
Anyway, with the command omnimm you can do all tape & drive related manipulations, perfect for scripting purposes.
One of these options is resetting the tape quality. To do this, execute this command: omnimm -reset_poor_medium
The tape is now back in "GOOD" quality and ready to use.

Great cheat and very very useful, overall in Data Protector where Poor Quality marked tapes is an everyday issue.
Hi, nice tip.
I would be able to use the data in the tape?
Cheers!
