TSM Server is AIX 4.3.3 running TSM 4.2.1.9

I have noticed I have about 145 volumes that are less than 25% utilized,
most of these are in the offsite pool. Reclamation runs on the offsite pool
daily, sometimes, like this morning, I find it is still running. Reclamation
kicks off at 5PM with reclaim=50. I'm not understanding why these aren't
being reclaimed quicker.

Just a few:
U00582                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    25,415.9    0.0
Full
U00586                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    19,665.6    0.0
Full
U01638                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    18,157.9    8.5
Full

This morning I saw reclamation running with this tape mounted and a scratch
tape had just been mounted to, more than likely, move some files. But it's
100% full so I don't get it.

U02188                    NOTES_TPOOL  3590CLASS    36,672.3  100.0    Full

Is this strange and does anyone else have this many tapes with the same
percentage used.
