If I remember correctly, to stop a reclamation (primary or copy), you have
to first set the threshold to 100, then cancel whatever processes may be
running... even then, they will finish whatever file they are currently
moving.  I think that could all be done in a server script, but I prefer to
script at the OS level, usually in perl...

Hi,
if you have RECLAIM parameter set on 100 in your copy sequential stg pool,
reclamation on volumes in that pool shouldn't occur at all.. Or am I
missing
something ?

Best regards,
