You might be running into what I've seen if you are performing your reclamation via RECLaim STGpool. If you have many very low utilized tapes and you do not use an OFFSITERECLAIMLIMIT then it is possible that the reclamation process will only yield another tape going off site and none coming

I totally agree on this. At one time, we had such a time with offsite reclamation, we would set it to 99, then have a script run checking for reclamation processes, and bump the number down by 1 if there were none. A hack, to be sure, but we eventually caught up. On Wed, Jan 27, 2010 at 8:31 AM

Hi George, When you get behind with reclamation, you end up with many volumes with low util/high reclaim values. TSM trys to minimize tape mounts by reclaiming offsite data from your onsite tapes without too many remounts, which can pull data related to several/(or many) offsite volumes. You can

Joni, Yes it does. I was just pointing out that with the move data command, you specify the volumes, whereas with reclamation, TSM does the prework of selecting volumes. This can be time consuming, as David points out. Geo IMPORTANT: E-mail sent through the Internet is not secure
