if the Mounts are 0 , that indicates this tape does not have been used by the specific EMM server.
but even the tape mounts are not equl to 0 tapes can be quilified to be Scratch when they does not have any valid images on it.
so look for the valid imges, data size and also the image expiretion date & assigned host.
if they are blank.. it indicates that those tapes are avaliable for scratch.
Note:- it is all change when you have tapes comming from other Master server or looking or importing the tapes..
