I knew there were some rules about this, but I had not been able to figure
out what they were, thanks for the clarification.

"Filling" tapes that are offsite get reclaimed.  If "pct reclaim" of the
tape matches os exceeds the stgpool reclaim pct. Filling tapes that are
onsite get reclaimed too, if access get's set to readonly.

There are broken code problems that are not fixed until 4.2.2.10 that can be
a contributor if you have W2K clients.  The question is are these marked
full or are they filling.  Fillings do not get reclaimed based on what I
have seen.

TSM Server is AIX 4.3.3 running TSM 4.2.1.9

I have noticed I have about 145 volumes that are less than 25% utilized,
most of these are in the offsite pool. Reclamation runs on the offsite pool
daily, sometimes, like this morning, I find it is still running. Reclamation
kicks off at 5PM with reclaim=50. I'm not understanding why these aren't
being reclaimed quicker.

Just a few:
U00582                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    25,415.9    0.0
Full
U00586                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    19,665.6    0.0
Full
U01638                    OFFSITE_POOL   3590CLASS    18,157.9    8.5
Full

This morning I saw reclamation running with this tape mounted and a scratch
tape had just been mounted to, more than likely, move some files. But it's
100% full so I don't get it.

U02188                    NOTES_TPOOL  3590CLASS    36,672.3  100.0
Full

Is this strange and does anyone else have this many tapes with the same
percentage used. Geoff Gill TSM Administrator NT Systems Support Engineer
