Zoltan,
I run 'reconcile volumes < virtual volume devclass_name > fix=yes' once a month.

Our TSM servers are both running version 6.2.2.2, and reconcile finds hundreds 
of invalid volumes each time it runs. Others' experience may be different.  In 
our situation, I should have opened a PMR long ago. Now I certainly will.  In 
our worst experience the target server was holding so many invalid volumes that 
our scratch pool was nearly depleted. When we finally remembered to run 
reconcile, scratch tapes came down like falling rain.   

Best wishes,
Keith
