Do you use an overflow location? If the tape in the overflow location and called
for by TSM, it will call for 2 hours and if the tape isn't checked into the
library, it will be marked as unavailable. Once the checkin of the tape has
occurred, you must upd vol <vol name> access=readw... The tape may have been
requested some time in the past.

Checking the activity log might give you an idea of why these tapes are
being marked unavailable. Look in there and see if it specifies what the
problem is.

Subject: Cartridges marked unavailable
Hi:
I seeing a new situation where a number of volumes (K-type) are being set
unavailable. This is stoppping reclamation of copypool volumes.
I generate a list, then mark then readw, then initiate a reclamation. The
volumes then reset to unavailable, and the reclamation does not complete.
Any suggestions as to the reason wht.
Should I check these out and mark these as destroyed?
