Cache Migrated Files is set to NO on the DISKDIRS pool.   Is that the parm
you are speaking of?

Thanks,

Is your disk storage pool cached? If so, that's your problem.

We've had multiple discussions on this list about slow copy pool
reclamations; a common culprit is a cached disk pool, which forces TSM
to use the copies of files still existing in your disk pool, but only
*one at a time*, rather than the batched file moves that take place from
a primary tape pool volumes to copy tape pool volumes.

If this is your problem, you have two alteratives: turn caching off on
the disk pool, or do a daily MOVE DATA from disk pool volumes to your
primary tape pool prior to copy pool reclamation.
