A quick way is to monitor expiration while it is running with "q process".
You can see that objects are being deleted.  If it runs during the night
then the next day do a "q actlog begind=-1 sea=expiration" and see
the summary when it finishes as to how much was deleted.

(Note: The number of objects deleted does not correspond
to the number of files deleted/expired).

Doing comparisons between nodes and how much tape is used
doesn't always even up as we think it might, partially due to how
TSM aggreagtes files. etc.

All-

Please help me understand this issue. The issue is expiration takes place
,but how
do I confirm its working ok.

I see files get marked in backup schedule and gets deleted as per parameters
,but
still how to verify all goes well?

One of the node has more tapes occupied than other even if the data size is
same on
both nodes on same TSM Server.
