I hope i am writing in the right section.
I get alot used tapes from our sister company. I am trying to get them into our TSM 7.1 as scratch. I used the following commmand to check in:
LABEL LIBVOL 3576LIB0 SEARCH=BULK LABELSOURCE=BARCODE OVERWRITE=YES CHECKIN=SCRATCH WAITT=0
when i look at actlog, i see the following error.
17.03.2015 17:32:21 ANR8816E LABEL LIBVOLUME: Volume 900028L3 in library
3576LIB0 cannot be labeled because it is currently
defined in a storage pool or in the volume history file.
(SESSION: 38071, PROCESS: 290)
then i looked into the libvol, but there is no volume 900028L3 in "q libvol" shown.

then i tried to check details on that volume:

there is a Storage Pool ARC which we are using, and this tape seems to also belong to a pool named "ARC", but thats not our ARC Pool. maybe our sister company used the same name long time ago.
any hints, how i can get that volumes get checked in as "scratch" ?
thanks in advance
