Your _virtual_ tape volumes? Well, if you're using TSM against e.g. a VTS, then the least you should be doing is setting colocation to filespace, and setting your virtual volumes pretty small. (10G? 2?) If you do this, then at least you're storing things with a structure that lets your VTS help you instead of hurt. - Allen S. Rout
