Apparently, now that version 3 is a wrap, development has started to
recycle bugs ;-)

I found this apar in IBMLink.  It is closed but there is no fix available.
(There are many other related apars for the different server platforms.)

  APAR Identifier ...... PQ04753       Last Changed..97/05/22
  ADSM QUERY PROCESS SHOWS INCORRECT NUMBER OF SECONDS FOR WAIT
  TIME ON MOUNT REQUEST FOR MIGRATION OUTPUT TAPE VOLUME

  Parent APAR:    IC16476
  Child APAR list:


  ERROR DESCRIPTION:
  When a processing is waiting on a tape mount, the output from
  a query process shows the amount of time in seconds that the
  server has been waiting for the mount. For migration processes
  this wait time is incorrect when the mount is for a second
  tape needed by this one migration process. It looks like the
  wait time is not being reset for each new mount requested.


  LOCAL FIX:


  PROBLEM SUMMARY:
   ****************************************************************
  * USERS AFFECTED:                                              *
  All ADSM Version 2 server platforms
  ****************************************************************
  * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION:                                         *
  At times, the wait time for a mount displayed in QUERY PROCESS
  will display an incorrect time.  The time is not being
  set back to zero when a new mount is issued for this
  operation.  The problems appears to affect Disk to Tape
  migration, Backup Stgpool, and move data disk to tape.
  ****************************************************************
  * RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
  Apply the fixing PTF when available.
  ****************************************************************
  Code was modified to make sure that the wait times are
  reset.


  PROBLEM CONCLUSION:
  With each mount wait situation, the wait times are reset.
