What is your reclamation set at on the DB2 pool?   Have you tried running a 
move data on the tape to free it up?-

Subject: DBtape won't go to scratch status


Hello all,

Not sure If I wrote about this one before, I do know I had this
problem before but was never able to get it resolved.


I have a couple tapes that are in  Dbackup and I would like to change
to
scratch status I tried using  update library volume using the TSM Gui
and
received the following message

ANR8443E UPDATE LIBVOLUME: Volume N00275 in library IBM3494R
cannot be assigned a status of SCRATCH.

The DBbackup volume has a date of 12/23/03. So that data is not valid

Anyone ever had a tape problem like this?

Thanks in advance!
