Tivoli doesn't track scratch tapes. If the tapes are 
in a library, try  q libvol <library name>
This should give you a list of all tapes in the 
library and wheather they are private or scratch.

Subject: no status of empty when querying volume


Hello,

I'm very new to TSM. I have a question to why there are no tapes listed as
empty. I have 90 tapes in my scratch list but when I do the following
command:

q volume status=empty , I get a returned message indicating the following:
"ANR2034E QUERY VOLUME: No match found using this criteria."  I then
perform the following command: q volume - to list everything in my volumes
and the status of the tapes are either FULL or FILLING.

Thanks,
Chris.
