There was nothing in the pools in question.  I'd never seen an
empty filespace showing up in a query, especially with a high
percentage used.

As noted in ADSM QuickFacts, the Pct Util value from Query Filespace
has nothing to do with TSM space: it is simply a recording of the
file system level when the TSM client last observed it.

A TSM filespace can remain after its contents have expired.  Also,
with Unix, a filespace can contain objects (directories, empty files,
and Special Files) which maintain a presence in the TSM database, but
not in storage pools.  You'd need to perform further queries to get
the whole story, of course.
