How big are the virtual tapes?
A tape to tape copy on a VTL is going to run as fast as the slowest point, 
either the VTL or the TSM server.

Hello Everyone,

 

  I was wondering is there a way to make reclamation for TSM more
efficient.  For instance moving data around before you start
reclamation?

 

Does anyone have any ideas?  The reason I am asking is that I am using a
VTL, and to reclamate a single tape takes about 90minutes at 65%.  I was
just thinking is there away to help reclamation along

 

Any Ideas or Comments are always appreciated

 

Thank you 

 

James
