Remember - you can't checkin a tape as scratch if TSM has records of data
on it. IE, if the volume is in a storage pool, has an database backup on
it, or other situation where TSM knows the tape is in use. You can,
however, check it in a Private, then check it back out and have the library
eject it. This makes sure that TSM knows where the tape is.
With a vault (and an outside company maintaining it, and maybe another
group handling tape management - I/O work, I recomend auditing your vault
every 2 months, or more frequently, if possible.
