Weird Estimate on Storage Pool Capacity

[Kevin512K]

I have a 3494 tape library configured on my TSM 4.2.1.25 Each tape capacity is around 40GB. The weird thing is when I assigned only 6 tapes to a storage pool, then I do a 'q stgpool', the total capacity is showing 4.2TB when there's only 6 tapes assigned to that storage pool. Should it be 40*6=240GB?? How can it became 4.2TB??

What is the MAXSCR of this storagepool set to?

This value is used in calculating the estimated capacity of a sequential storagepool.

haaa. I c now.. MAXSCR is set to 100 that is why.



Thanks.
