If this was an offsite tape pool, that could be normal, if
having to mount many tapes and search around.
I have 3584 with FC drives on AIX and generally is faster
more like 40GB per hour, but some places can be slower.
Wouldn't expect this slow normally, just sometimes.

Also do you know if the reclamation had to wait for a tape
mount at any point?  Maybe a tape was in use by another 
process.

Hi *SM-ers!
I just checked my reclamation. A tape was being reclaimed and it took TSM
3:41:14 to do the job. The total amount of data being reclaimed was
104,711,564,841 bytes. That's about 7.8 Mb./sec.
I don't know if this is a speed one might expect, but to me it looks a
little bit slow. I'm using a TSM 4.2.3.2 server on AIX, the drives are SCSI
attached, two drives per cable/connector.
Does anybody have some tricks to boost this performance? Or maybe, this is
normal performance?
Thanks in advance for any reply!
Kindest regards,
