I don't know CA-TLMS. But I download the User's Manual. You should review this 
manual. Perhaps you need to do something like:

//TLMSINQR JOB
//TLMSINQR EXEC CATINQR
//CAIIPT DD *
UPV volser SCRATCH=NO
//

If the tape is in an IBM automated tape library, you likely need to update the 
status in the library as well. The book says that this is done using the 
CTSSYNC program. Sample JCL might be:

//STEP1 EXEC PGM=CTSSYNC
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
VERIFY
SYNC
volser
//
