Sure...
what you'll find is that for each ~operation~ in a server to server
enviornment, once that operation finishes, it closes out a virtual volume"."
So say you have an Est Cap of 10 GB but your backup stgpool to the remote
server /virtual volume only pushes 2 GB.  Then that virtual volume will be 2
GB and won't have any more data written to it.

For your reclamation not working, check into the "mountlimit" of the device
class of device "server".

Subject: Very small server to server volumes


Hi TSM'er
2 x TSM Server 4.2.1.9
OS W2k SP2

we have on both  servers a  server to server  copy storagepool, as well as a
local copy storagepool.
One of the servers keeps generating server to server volumes that look like
this.

BY0O83.BFS.026016225      CP_TO_CROSS  LTOCROSSD-        1.0   76.2    Full
BY0O83.BFS.027744232      CP_TO_CROSS  LTOCROSSD-        0.5   64.6    Full
 this means that the estimated capacity of that volume is 0.5 MB and is used
64.6%, the volume contains data.
The space reclamation doesn't seem to work. ( it should, shouldn't it). The
volumes are set to be 10GB.

When I try to do a move data on a volume I get the following message.
 ANR1145W Move data process terminated for volume
  BY0O83.BFS.026585208 - insufficient number of mount
  points available for removable media.

Anyone got an idea what that could be, or which strategy I can use to have a
copy storagepool at a different site.
I was thinking of something like library sharing. Anyone got any exoirience
with
library sharing?
Thanks

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards
