ALREADY IN DELETE STATUS - BYPASSED

Reason:

The Volume record was already in inactive (DELETE) status when the request to place the Volume record in inactive (DELETE) status was processed. No update is performed to this Volume record.

Action:

This is an informational message. If the volume was included in the range and can be bypassed, no action is required.

RECORD WAS NOT MARKED AS 'DELETED'

Reason:

The Volume record was not in inactive (DELETE) status when the request to place the Volume record in active status was processed.

Action:

If the volume was included in a range and it is acceptable that the volume is not in delete status, no action is required. Otherwise, use CA 1 batch or online inquiry to examine the Volume record and determine why the record is not in delete status.

UNABLE TO DELETE, MUST BE SCRATCH STATUS

Reason:

The Volume record was not in scratch status when the request to place the Volume record in inactive (DELETE) status was processed.

Action:

If the volume was included in the range and can be bypassed, no action is required. If the volume should be in scratch status, use CA 1 batch or online inquiry to determine whether the volume is eligible for scratch (volume is not out-of-area and is expired); if not, take the appropriate action.
