Now don't start thinking that "max scratch" simply accounts for the volumes that show up as "Scratch" during a "q libvol" "max scratch" limits the number of tapes that will be used that were checked in AS scratch. So if you checked in 300 tapes as scratch, your "q libvol" currently shows 135 scratch which implies 165 private (in my example) THIS MEANS only 30 more tapes will be used... that is, 105 of those 135 tapes marked scratch WILL NOT BE USED. for all 300 to be used, maxscr would need to be set to 300
