Hi Christopher!
A q vol only returns storagepool volumes. A scratch tapes are not
storagepool volumes. As soon as TSM has written data to them, they become
storagepool volumes.
Normally you will only see volumes in a full, fillling or a pending state.
As far as I know, the empty state you will only see for empty disk or file
volumes, which you pre-allocate.
Kindest regards,

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.
