If not a collocation issue, then this is the situation I describe as
"Tape leak" in ADSM QuickFacts (q.v.). You can use that phrase in a
List archives search to see our past discussions on it.

I've noticed that processes will fill a tape and then instead of
calling for another FILLING tape in the storage pool, it will mount
a scratch tape. I just saw this again this morning...I had a BA STG
running from onsite tape to offsite tape. There were 4 tapes in
the offsite pool...2 filling.. 1 full..and a filling tape being
written to. The current tape filled up and instead of mounting one
of the other 2 filling tapes, a new scratch tape was called for.
And one of the filling tapes was only 1.4% used!
I search the TSM site and the archives, but I must not have the
correct search words, 'cause I can't find any hits. My TSM server is
5.3.2.1 on AIX 5.3 ML2.
