If it is a manual library (i.e. a bare tape drive) you still have to label
and "check in" tapes as scratch. Then TSM will request you to unmount the
full tape and mount a particular scratch tape. You can run "mountmode"
console which will display the messages.

Well, SWIT3! The volumes have to be already labelled & checked into the
library as SCRATCH volumes. Then, TSM will automatically mount a SCRATCH
volume and proceed with the data write. If not you will have numerous
insufficient space errors in the activity log.
