What is the "est/max capacity" on the device class used for the offsite
storage pool. Is collocation enabled?  These could both contribute to
more smaller volumes.

Move data just seems to create a new virtual volume, as when each VV is
written to- it gets closed and can't be extended due to its logical
nature.

Hello

Other than offsite reclamation, is there any way to easily consolidate
offsite virtual volumes?

Currently I have a server which is electronically vaulting to a remote
TSM server. There are in the region of 3000 volumes in the copy pool,
some 5 MB and smaller in size.

Backup storage pool process usually creates in the region of 20 a day.
