CA 1 can track tapes or cartridges that have duplicate internal volsers. This situation may arise when the workload is moved from one system to another, multiple systems are consolidated, or a separate system needs to be absorbed into your production system. The merge phase (TMSMERGE) of a split/merge operation can assign a unique external volser to the tape/cartridge. This external volser is used in all mount messages, OS catalog, and reports. However, the internal (VOL1 record) is used during OPEN processing to mount the correct tape.
Once an AIVS volume goes scratch, reinitialize it before it can be used as a scratch tape. Once the tape is placed in scratch status, it is also placed in delete status. The scratch list produced by TMECLN01 can be modified to list all scratched AIVS volumes separately (simply uncomment out one line).
