Jacky - We have had this same occur in DB2 - MQ and DB2 uses the same 
logging techniques.  

At message:
*12 IEF455D MOUNT PRIVAT ON 0780 FOR MPFTMSTR MPFTMSTR OR
>REPLY 'NO'

MQ issues an ENQ on one of it's resources, not sure which one it is at this 
time.  But either way, MQ is ezpecting either a tape to be mounted or you 
to reply no to the message.  If you were to reply no then MQ would 
continue, perhaps after another reply to the IEF455D message for the second 
log if doing dual logging.

Basically, for all I know, this is how it works.  Perhaps someone with more 
DB2/MQ expirence can offer some advice on if there are ways around it.

If you would have some tape drives set to "System" and scratch tapes 
loaded, then there wouldn't necessarily be any operator intervention and it 
could have loaded the scratch tape itself.
