This message was new with the 3590 support on VM, and you can get the
documentation by issuing HELP ANR5374. If you are having problems with this,
you might want to look at APAR PQ19184.

There is a volume status full for 3590 volumes, and there is a slight
difference in the determination of eov from 3490E.  3590 volumes will
do eov processing when the drive signals end of tape, or when the
maxcapacity is reached, if maxcapacity has been set. 3490E volumes will
do eov processing just before the drive signals end of tape (base on a
calculation from IBM drives), when the drive signals end of tape, or
when maxcapacity is reached, if maxcapacity has been set.  For either
drive, when the drive signals end of tape, eov processing will
occur even if maxcapacity has not been reached.
