You can setup discorrdint onsite reclamations with single drives.

What I mean is you start an onsite-Tapepool reclamation that dumps the
tape to a reclamation disk.  after its done you trigger the migration off
that disk and start another tape-dump to a different disk (file) area.
then switch again when both succeed.

that would maximize the use of 2 drives and 2 rec processes.
Unfortuneately you cannot set migproc>1 for reclamation stg pools.
I hope that's a bug Tivoli's addressing.

tape.   It appears to be more effecient from my observations.
