sure,

put a schedued administrative commands in for each drive whenever you want.
the command is

        clean drive LIBRARY TAPEDRIVE0

Make sure and do them so there is enough time between commands for the drive
to clean.

Or put them in a command script with a wait (or 10 minutes of expiration :)
between each
clean command.

Hi everybody

I have TSM 5.2.0.2 server on  win2k.
I have a IBM library 3583-R72 with 6 drives .

Is there a easy way to schedule a job to let say clean all drives every 2
weeks or ....

Thanks
