System programmer response
Validate error category as expected
and determine if error category describes a media problem or library
subsystem error. System command D SMS,VOLUME(volser) will provide
additional volume status. Resetting the scratch error status reactivates
the volume's scratch pool status. Changing the volume use attribute
from scratch to scratch will reset the scratch error status. See section "TCDB
Volume Error Status and Software Error Category" in z/OS DFSMS OAM Planning, Installation, and Storage Administration Guide for Tape Libraries.
Programmer response
Report software error category to library
subsystem administrator.
