Can someone confirm this before I report it to IBM?
Seems to be a bug in this release of TSM (5.2.4.0) with the command, "query
libvol", see below. A "query volume wn3006" shows the tape WN3006 as being
used by the ARCHTAPE storage pool. A "query libvolume wn3006" shows that
it is not in the library. Yet, when I executed an audit volume, the tape
mounted and read without issue. If I execute a "query libvolume qualstar
WN3006", the tape shows up in the library. Note the difference is
explicitly stating the library name, qualstar. The help file indicates
that the default for the library name is "all" libraries. This matches how
all TSM Servers worked at earlier levels. Note also that if one executes
"query libvolume" (without any parameters) the tape in question DOES shows
up.
