Justin,
We are in the same boat as you, more or less. We want to use a cycle
retention that the courier can support and reclaim the tapes coming backup.
I posted an example of how to do this about a week ago, but probably did not
garner much respect because it seems like a really dumb thing to do

Justin,
TSM isn't really designed for a regular offsite rotation. The intention is
to send the copy storagepool tape offsite each day, regardless of how full
it is. You then perform offsite reclamation, which uses primary storage
pool tapes (or optical) to recombine the data from several partial
I'd suggest using TSM to back the data up to LTO, then back up the LTO
storage pool to a copy pool and send the copies off-site. Run reclaims and
only bring back empty or pending empty off-site tapes. My worst case sends
off a tape that is 5% full daily. The reclaim actually kicks in just after
