Offsite volume reclamation is designed so that all files needed from a
particular primary volume are obtained at the same time, regardless of
which volume reclamations need these files.  There is no need to serialize
as hypothesized above.

My recommendation would be to work through IBM service on this.  It might
be useful to perform a Move Data on one of the offsite volumes that did
not get reclaimed and look for messages.  Also, be sure to check your
activity log for messages during reclamation processing.  If a volume
cannot be completely reclaimed, a message is supposed to be displayed giving
possible reasons.
