If you are having trouble finishing reclaims, you can step down to force it to do the easy ones first. First reclaim at the 99% level, then 95, 90, etc. for as much time as you have available. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/21/05 2:25 PM >>> I have noticed this. I did not know if it started with the 70

In 5.2 and below, Offsite Reclamation is handled differently than onsite. Onsite reclamation starts with the most-reclaimable tape (99.9) and does them one at a time. Reclamation for tapes marked OFFSITE (usually your copypool) is different. Since TSM must mount the ONSITE/primary pool tapes to d

I have noticed this. I did not know if it started with the 70% as you said but I know that it does not start with the 99.9%. We have been having trouble getting reclaim to finish. Since it starts with the 70% and does not finish, over time we have a lot of tapes offsite which are 99% reclaimable
