Dierk, There is no need to reclaim tapes every day. If each day's tape is only partly used, it may be more efficient to only reclaim once a week.

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
