We:
1. backup up Disk and Tape onsite,
2. then Database backup,
3. then DRM (Disaster Recovery Media) plan and DR files (double) and also
DR cleanup (eg. delete volhistory and others),
4. then Expiration,
5. then Migration (at end of day to use disk for quicker restores),
6. and on weekends we run Reclamation all weekend.
  So far has been working good.  Our DRM plan gets done around 12:00 noon
when the whole process (in a script) starts around 5:20, trying to get to
start earlier so we can finish earlier to get DRM plan on the mksysb tape
out door in morning for a true DR.

Backups
creation of copypool volumes
Migration from disk to cartridge
DB backup
Expiration (which triggers reclamation)

I was just wondering what order that most TSM users have their daily
processes running (IE: Migration, Expiration, Reclaim etc).
It seems that those process times were set up wrong when our TSM server
was first installed.
Our process schedule looks this way right now. I know its way off base
from what it should be.
Any suggestions? I know I need to put EXPIRATION first.

thanks,
