Hi Shane,

  For scratch volumes you don't need to issue a "define volume" command.  ADSM
will do this automatically when it utilizes the tapes.

  1. label the volumes (dsmlabel)
  2. checkin the volumes (checkin libvol  libname status=scratch search=yes)
    * for v3 server you can combine step 1&2 with the 'label libvol" command
  3. update your maxscratch parameter if needed (update stgpool stgpoolname
maxscratch=##)

  Regards,  Tricia Jiang
