my tapes are virtual, so I no longer do any stacking of tapes.

Make sure your TMC can handle 99,999 or more tapes. And switch to:
SETSYS PARTIALTAPE(BACKUP(MARKFULL) MIGRATION(MARKFULL))
/*
/*
SETSYS TAPEUTILIZATION(UNIT(3490) PERCENTFULL(100))
The spanning dataset is HSM.HMIGTAPE.DATASET. All the files are kept
within the one dataset name.
For tapes that are not spanned, then RECYCLE and DELETE PURGE works well.
It's these tapes that are stacked 3 4 deep that have me confused.

I run it nightly, but that doesn't seem to help this problem. Maybe I
provide the wrong parameters. And my tapes are virtual also. That is the
real reason for wanting to scratch these tapes, to free up the back-end
storage for the tapes. If they were real tapes I wouldn't care.

Verify the last dataset listed on volx is the first dataset on volx+1
There is a command, I think a version of LIST that will tell you the contents
