illogical behavior ?

[obiwan2]

Hi TSM-specialists,

i have found today in our list of private volumes a tape with illogical values....

Volume: 502209
Status: FILLING
Access: OFFSITE
Location: SAFE
Est., Cap.: 6,0 TB
% Util.: 0.0
% Recl.: 100.0

When I now do a "q cont 502209" i get a listing of files that still reside onto this tape !
How can that be ? Utilized=0.0 and Reclaimable=100.0 !!??

Does anyone know what happens here ? Is that all correct ?
Thanks in advance !

Hi,
it is OK - if the amount of data is below 0.1% of 6TB (like 6GB) then TSM shows 0 ....
Important thing is the tape is "Filling" - if it holds no data, then the status is "Empty"

That explains some confusion here.....
