Well, that depends on what the capacity of your tapes are,
how many tapes you would reclaim etc.  From what info you
provided though, I would say do this daily instead of weekly.
It may finish in 5-8 hours if done daily.  Do it daily for a few
days and see what happens.  Most sites do this and expiration
on a daily basis.

How long should weekly reclaimation of copypools take?  I have a
copypool
library of 40 volumes.  I have tried to do copypool reclaimation on a
weekly basis but have not gotten it to finish in a 5-8 hour day?  We
are
using TSM 5.1 on the client side in a Win 2k environment.  How long
should
I expect it to take?

Thanks for any help.
