In my research this morning I found out that what had caused DFSMSHSM to hold on to tape 410239 was that the ABARS job that was reading the tape had been cancelled and never restarted and/or rerun. so by bring down DFSMSHSM the tape allocation was released. But I still would appreciate if someone knows how I could of identified which of the 5 DFSMSHSM had the tape allocated and if I could of issued a command to release the tape without bring the DFSMSHSM.
