I have a devc called FILECLASS based on DEVT FILE,
and I got a STGPOOL based on this DEVC
and when I perform migration to tapes (to an STG based on
DEVC=LTO2CLASS, DEVT=LTO)
I see that two processes (out of 3) are waiting for a mount in DEVC FILECLASS:

                                       Waiting for mount point in
device class
                                       FILECLASS (1791 seconds).

The device class as shown below is limited to 20 concurrent mounts.
 So why the proccesses are denied immediate access to the FILE volumes?

The particulars of the STG and DEVC are as following:
tsm: TRISTAN>q dev  fileclass f=d

Device Class Name: FILECLASS
Device Access Strategy: Sequential
Storage Pool Count: 4
Device Type: FILE
Format: DRIVE
Est/Max Capacity (MB): 51,200.0

And there is a storage pool based on this DEVC
tsm: TRISTAN>q stg file_mail f=d

               Storage Pool Name: FILE_MAIL
               Storage Pool Type: Primary
