Volume is showing expiration of 23/11/07
All savesets on the tape are completely on the volume
All savesets have a retention and browse policy of 4 days
All savesets have timestamps of 15/11/07 1700 - 16/11/07 0600
All savesets from 2300 and earlier are showing as recyclable
All savesets from 2357 and later are showing as recoverable

Shouldn't all of the savesets be recyclable and the volume itself be recyclable 
as well?
If it should indeed be recyclable, any ideas why it isn't showing that way?


There are two possibilities:

(1) There may be newer save sets of a lower level which depend on these save sets.

(2) nsrim may not have yet been run to mark the save sets and volume as recyclable. This runs periodically but you can also run it manually if you like.
