Remember:

If the status of a volume is full or if its access mode is read-only (R/O), the mount mode of the volume is R/O. To determine the status and access mode of a volume, issue the QUERY VOLUME FORMAT=DETAILED command. If a volume can be written to (that is, the status is filling or empty), the mount mode of the volume is read/write (R/W), even if it is only being read.
In a storage pool that is associated with the FILE or CENTERA device type, the server can complete concurrent multiple read-access and one write-access to the same volume. As a result, a volume in a storage pool with a device type of FILE or CENTERA can appear to be mounted more than once.
In the message ANR8448I, the drive name is listed as UNKNOWN for volumes of the FILE device type with a non-shared device class. The reason is that no drive is associated with the volumes; drive names are shown in the file-based library.
If you issue the QUERY MOUNT command while the drive is being cleaned, the command output continues to show a DISMOUNTING status for the dismounted volume until the cleaning completes.
