I'll second Daniel, and add that it's tremendously useful when you're moving
clients out of a TSM server.

I moved several large clients, deleted their old data, unloaded and reloaded
the DB, and got back more (much more) than 50% of my space.  Then I cleared
out some DB volumes, moved them to my new infrastructure, and continued the
process.
