Check the access state of the storage pool and make sure it is READW.  
I get this error when I forget and leave them in a reado state.

The max scratch volumes allowed is 1000 but only 362 are used.  I don't have 
any with the status of empty.

Hi Eric,

 Does the storage pool have a limit to the number of scratch tapes available? 
Or do you have to manually define tapes to that pool?

q stg pool_name f=d

    Maximum Scratch Volumes Allowed: 2,000
    Number of Scratch Volumes Used: 1,160


If you manually define tapes to the storage pool, try this query below.
Does it return any available tapes in the pool?

q v * stg=pool_name status=Empty
