   Just FYI
  </div>
  <div>
   <br>Some of my libraries had enough trouble tolerating "zStacks" in the list and I ended up moving all the items in "zStacks" to another location.  if a location is empty, i.e. no items point at a location, the location can be deleted.
  </div>
  <div>
   <br>
  </div>
  <div>
   Using SQL:
  </div>
  <div>
   select id,name from asset.copy_location where name IN ('zStacks','NewLoc');
  </div>
  <div>
   reveals: 1234 => zStacks
  </div>
  <div>
                5678 => NewLoc
   <br>
   <br>UPDATE asset.copy set location = 5678 where location = 1234;
  </div>
  <div>
   <br>
  </div>
  <div>
   This Move all copies, deleted or otherwise from the ZStacks location to a new location so that zStacks it can be retired by deleting it as local admin.
   <br>
   <br>The items with deleted =>true will not show in searches but can still be reported on in their new location.

           This is another instance where "DELETE" actually means "update the database entry to set a deleted flag but keep it there" just as with many other things in Evergreen so using the delete option doesn't actually delete the copy location.  It will prevent it from being used for new copies but old entires like deleted copies, circs, etc... will still reference it.
