Bottom line: if it's not defined in a storage pool, it does not contain
client data, and therefore Q CONTENT will not work. What do you get when
you run
select * from volhistory where volume_name='AKZ9121L'
To change the volume from private to scratch, if it contains no data,
you perform
UPDATE LIBVOLUME 4560SLXLIB AKZ9121L STATUS=SCRATCH
