I have a query about why a volume cannot be assigned as a scratch volume. The volume in question was included in a backupset which ran at 12:00 midday on 28th May:
"generate backupset zola weekly_backup devclass=3590copy retention=30"
As the retention is 30 days this volume should be available on 27th June, yet the checkin rejects the volume the following day :
28-06-2006 09:31:46 ANR8443E CHECKIN LIBVOLUME: Volume VOL014 in library
3590LIB cannot be assigned a status of SCRATCH.
The volume in question is not being used anywhere else.
Can you help?
