If your site uses an ARM product and does not use the Autopick facility, CA VM:Tape calls the ARM product to select scratch tapes to satisfy mount requests. The tape statuses recorded in the TMC and the ARM product catalog must therefore be consistent.
When the SCRATCH command scratches tapes in an ARM, the command notifies the ARM and the ARM updates its catalog with the new tape statuses. If the ARM product is unavailable when the SCRATCH command runs, or if the CA 1 TMSCLEAN utility scratches ARM product tapes, you must use the REFRESH command to notify the ARM of scratched tapes when the ARM becomes available.
