Run an AUDIT VOL <volume_name> FIX=YES on the tape volume. After it completes, your tape should become a scratch tape. -- Mark Stapleton System engineer, CDW -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Paul Dudley Sent: Sunday, February 01, 2009 8:25 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ADSM-L] Make empty volume a scratch tape I have performed a move data command on a tape volume which has worked OK and moved all the data from the tape. The pct util is 0.0, the tape is in read/write access state and the volume state is full. How can I make this a scratch tape as it has no data on it? The delete vol command fails with a return status of 13. Rather than waiting a day can I force it to be a scratch tape now?
