I also had an issue with collocation before where the tape
volumes do not go back to scratch after reclaimation ran.
 By querying the library volumes it does not say that these
tapes contains "data" but they are still private.  Querying
the volumes shows that the tapes are empty.  They are
however not automatically deleted from the pool they belong
to.  Did anyone else get this?
