Hi, Reclamation of off-site volumes will use: 1) filling on-site copy pool tapes (acc=readwrite); 2) scratch tapes
So, if you do your reclamation before checking out the copy pool tapes, reclamation will use the filling copy pool tapes inside the library with acc=readwrite. Most people will do their reclamation after checkout, minimizing the risk of losing the copy tapes.

Hello TSMers ! Is there a way to force TSM to use tapes with the status 'filling' instead of scratch/new tapes, so it would reduce reclamation processes ? Why I ask this: The copy pool for offsite location (drm) needs to be reclaimed, like other stgp do; but by using always new/scratch tapes, there is more reclamation than necessary, I think. Any idea is welcam, thanks in advance Dierk
