        Hi All,

                I have some volumes which appears in a "q libv" as
follows...(ythis is just one of them)


        3575LIB1  11824F     Private        59


The usual forth field of "Data" is not displayed. Does this mean that this
is a "scratchable" tape???

Also, from the actlog, the last entry for this tape is an atempted checkin,
which has failed as ADSM says that the tape is already in the library.
The next most recent entry for the tape is a "checkout" from the library,
which has failed, because the tape it got was the wrong one(I think the
inventory is stuffed.)

        As I am physically holding this tape in my hand, I am very confused
as to what is going on.
        Several tapes are like this. It also seems that after doing a
"tapeutil -f /dev/smc0 inventory"
        that some of the tapes that are displayed are not the ones that
physically appear in the slot
        that it says.

        Quite strange. Has anyone got some clues on how to sanity check and
fix this inventory issue please?

        cheers
                steve
