Henrik - Someone should check me on this, but I believe that KEEPMP=No is why Query MOunt does not show a mount for the tape which Query SEssion reports. Note that the Session shows a very long Seconds count, which I believe indicates how long the media has been idle, as in waiting for the client to traverse the file system in finding the next backup candidate. In a prolonged wait I would expect TSM to give the drive over to a more active session or process. Documentation of KEEPMP is incomplete as to when it will surrender a mount point, so this is deductive reasoning.
