The way to correct it is to run two checkin commands:

checkin libvol libname search=yes checklabel=barcode status=scratch
checkin libvol libname search=yes checklabel=barcode status=private

The order is critical here, unless you want all your scratch tapes checked
in as private tapes.

An audit library will verify that all the tapes *SM thinks are in the
library are actually in the library.  It does not fix up tapes it doesn't
know about though.  Audit does not take the place of correctly executed
checkin commands.
