Gill, I have used the MOVE DATA without any problems. Usually it is because of a percieved problem with the offsite tape. But it should work for what you want to do. WHy doesn't Reclaimation get this done for you? Matt

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, October 20, 2003 1:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Move data Have any of you used the move data command to try and consolidate data from filling tapes that have been sent offsite to tapes within the library that will be sent offsite? At the moment we have over 180 tapes in filling status offsite, anywhere from 0.1% to 100% filling. I'd like to at least see if I could free up the tapes that are 40% and filling. Is there an easier way of consolidating this data? Reclamation doesn't seem to do as good a job as I'd hoped. Any other ideas???
