G'day Hector,
You would check in a tape with status=private when your TSM has "named"
volumes ie, you DEF VOLUME explicitly. Then tapes that are status=private
are only mounted when requested by name.
Why would you do this? Well maybe you have a storage pool that you want to
ensure that it has "N" volumes available out of our list of scratch tapes?
Or you want a storage pool to use a list of named volumes only...
(To answer your 2nd part, if it is not defined to a storage pool (DEF
VOLUME), and the status is private, then it wont be used!).

status=private
Hi there,
A generic question. I cannot find a satisfactory answer from the manuals.
Under what circumstances do we want to check in a newly labelled tape with
status=private ? Do we have to assign it to a storage pool as a subsequent
step or it's not going to be available?
