Please reread my original post.
If it was that simple, I would have done it, long ago.......When I do
that, I get an "internal server error".
TSM support has contacted me and basically said to open a PMR to address
the issue. I am going to do such, shortly. Been real busy doing a MF
upgrade, this weekend. Waiting for the dust to settle.

Then just update the volume to access=read/write. TSM will put it back to
scratch status.

Have you tried
del volume <volumename> discarddata=yes
If it's truly empty, you won't lose any data. If it has anything at
all in it, the missing data will be backed up again at the next
scheduled backup session.
