I'm confident they're empty; just trying to prove it before I delete.

CONTENT isn't providing anything, and I can display content of volumes in other 
pools.

Q VOL <name> FORMAT=DETAILED indicates
        Pct Util =0
        Volume status =Full
        Pct reclaimable space = 100
        Not in error state

DEL VOL <name> DISCARD=NO should be a safe command.  If the volume contains 
files, the volume will not be deleted.

Eventhough they don't show any content, you could always do a "delete
volume ... discarddata=yes" for each volume.

The goal: delete a storage pool.

I've migrated a storage pool to a new pool.

Three volumes remain in the pool, such as H:\ DSKT07P\000011BF.BFS, which
disallow the delete.

% Util on them is 0; status is full.

Q CONTENT H:\DSKT07P\000011BF.BFS returns ANR2034E QUERY CONTENT: No match
found using this criteria.

Same result for the other two volumes.

Q CONTENT <volumename> against the new pool does display files.

I believe that means the volumes on the old pool are in fact empty and I
can delete them individually.

Correct?
