OK, there has to be a logical explanation for this (and I should probably 
know it):

A DASD's label seems to change after attaching then detaching it:
==> q 613c
DASD 613C FREE
          ^^^^
==> att 613c *
DASD 613C ATTACHED TO MAINT 613C WITH DEVCTL
==> q 613c
DASD 613C ATTACHED TO MAINT    613C R/W
==> det 613c 
DASD 613C DETACHED BY MAINT
==> q 613c
DASD 613C DM613C
          ^^^^^^

So 613C's label seems to change from "FREE" to "DM613C"

Previously I had formatted 613C (and a host of others) with CPFMTXA and 
did set the label to DM613C. But I had logged off MAINT before this 
session - so it would not seem that the old label name should be in any 
type of cache.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
