Hello, Pls correct me if I misunderstood the situation: - you need to clean 0012 and 001F tapes on the cluster only, right? There's no Rmm or Tcdb information for them, right? Did you tried, just for one tape, to define it on tcdb with CREA VOLENT with UATTR(SCRATCH) and force an ALTER on it? Did the category changed to a scratch category, if so, you can an eject on it with LI E, tape, p. HTH, regards
