I have moved it to free tapes, and i tried to click remove tape but is message that tape should be online.

Please make sure that the actual tapes allocation in the library match to the state in the software' DB - perform full Inventory operation.

I have not phisically this tape now - the tape is outside the location. This is the problem
I have it only in the system.

You don't need physical access to tape device, in the Backup console UI go to Settings -> Tape Managements -> Choose a device -> click Inventory

From the begginng: I have not phisical tape. What should i inventory if the device where tape should be is empty? inventoreyempty device? So it wrote that is empty after inventory.
When i want to delete tape, there is a message that: tape should be online to delete. But i have not this tape.
