I found a bunch of them last night, reset them to be scratch, and in a set of some 16 STGDELETE volumes today, 10 of them (from a total of 2 libraries) ended up owned by the lib mgr, status private. Seeing so many of them crop up so fast, I decided I needed to automate the fix: Here's how I'm finding these, and setting up the script to fix them. dsmadmc -tab -dataonly=yes -id=query -password=query -se=ctrl "select 'update libvolume', library_name, volume_name, 'status=scratch' \ from libvolumes where owner='CTRL' and last_use is null" \ | perl -ne ' s/\t/ /g; print; ' > /tmp/temp.scr - Allen S.
