Issue/Introduction
Volumes were updated manually to scratch them by changing the following flags:
e.g.:
VOL SCRATCH VVVVVV,NODSN
REP EXPDT=2024/214
REP OUTCODE=HEXZEROS
REP OUTDATE=ZEROS
REP ROBTY=HEXZEROS
REP ROBID=000
Unfortunately the sample used removed the ROBTY and ROBID values. So, the volumes got scratch in the TMC but not in the Tape volume catalog.
ROBTY and ROBID were updated using below cards to the former values:
VOL VVVVVV,NODSN
REP ROBTY=81
REP ROBID=001
VVVVVV UPDATED. * VOLUME IN SCRATCH STATUS
01 TMC RECORDS UPDATED
But still the volume still remains private in the tape volume catalog

Release : All
Component : CA 1
Resolution
Once the ROBTY and ROBID have been correctly updated, a CTSSYNC must be run. Example of the CTSSYNC for your reference below:
//STEP1 EXEC PGM=CTSSYNC
//SYSIN DD *
SYNC,VVVVVV-VVVVVV
