Hi All, We have resolved this problem by buying some more scratches. Management went out and bought some. Long debate here as to who is responsible for media management. Our Storage guy used to do it and no one else has taken it up since he has left. Any that is not what I need help here. Now with the SEV1 issue resolved, it was brought to my attention that we should look at .. ERROR CATEGORY SCRATCH COUNT: 183 Reading the redbook, it means there are 183 logical scratch volumes that have errors. How do I find out what they are? I believe the normal procedure is to eject the logical scratch volume? If not, please correct me.
