I have eight volumes that are mounted in the tape library and when i run q libv
they show up with a status of scratch and its blank under last use and it gives
me a home element for the volume.

When I run a q vol XXXXXXX on the same volume number I get no response and it
should tell me that its readwrite etc, but doesn't.  Can anyone help me as to
what is going on.

Thanks,

Gene
