We run 'move data' processes on 'filling' tapes to reduce the percent
migratable value for our virtual tape pools.  This allows us to allocate
fewer volumes to the storage pools.

I would like to make sure that I have all the relevant TSM admin
processes running as I am concerned about running out of space on the
tapes in the tape library.

Currently we have the following admin processes running on a daily
basis:



Delete volhist

Expire inventory

Reclaimation

Migration



Is there anything we are missing?



If there are thousands of files backed up via TSM which will stay on the
backup tapes in the library for a number of years probably without being
required for a restore, is there a way of moving these files to tapes
which can then be checked out of the library, thereby freeing up slots
in the library for more scratch tapes?





Thanks & Regards

Paul
