This sounds like IBM APAR OW55765
Customer noticed they do not receive a KEEP message for a
tape, in this case on a VTS drive. The tape drive was still
allocated to DFSMShsm but the backup task had ended. HSM was
not hung. DFSMShsm had received msgARC0371I ERROR reading the
BVR record. Because of this it did not deallocate the tape.
However, this is from 2002, for older releases of HSM.
when asking a question like this, it is always useful to mention the level of
z/OS involved.
