Rex, There are 2 places HSM records the DUPLEX volser 1 in the MCV record while the Primary volume is still a partial tape and then in the TTOC record. The DUPLEX tape would be displayed in the LIST TTOC output if the Primary volume still existed. If it doesn't show in the LIST TTOC output then HSM does not know anything about the tape. There will be no commands in HSM that will return it to scratch, HSM should have done that when HSM returned the Primary volume to scratch.
At this point you should be able to return the volumes to scratch via your Tape Management system. I know there is a way in TMS that you can force the return to scratch of these tapes as I have directed other clients to do this in the past.
