This command is used when running the SVTSUTIL program to scratch a Virtual Volume in the Global VCAT. This command is used when correcting the status of a Virtual Volume after a problem has occurred. This command does not scratch the Virtual Volume in the tape management system.
Note: We recommend running the Scratch Synchronization Job instead of VVE_SCRATCH. For more information, see Scratch Tape Synchronization in the Configuration Guide.
VVE_SCRATCH=volser[,FORCE]
Where volser is the Virtual Volume VOLSER.
Running VVE_SCRATCH on the local system of a P2P system will queue the volume for scratch processing on the remote system and always scratch the volume locally. If running with the optional keyword FORCE then internal P2P edits are bypassed. Care must be exercised when using the FORCE keyword. Also, running VVE_SCRATCH=nnnnnn,FORCE on a remote system will scratch the volume on the remote system, but will not scratch it on the local or originating system.
