How many reclamation process do you have defined for that storage pool? Keep in mind that each process will use 2 mounts.

Are there other sessions also writing backups to that storage pool during that time?

Do you have more than one storage pool using that device class?

The backup of the archive logs should not fail though, it might sit in MediaWait while waiting for a mount to become available. You could increase the mountlimit if you need more concurrent mounts.

so do you think should increase mountlimit parameter?

the oracle logs are started via a client schedule?
In the unlikely case that is also done via an admin schedule, the schedules will be run sequential.

If the backup fails, what are the errors both from TDP Oracle logs and the TSM Server activity logs?

The reclamation may or not be a contributing factor, it could be a coincidence. Need to focus on the errors to determine the cause of failure.
