Its possible. Just create retention policies that retain unlimited copies
with a nolimit retention. That way once a volume is full, it will stay full
because nothing will expire. Not that I would recommend it, but it is
possible.

Thanks,

That is impossible. It's the way TSM works.

Hi list,

Where can I find some documented examples of TSM policies for backup and
archive operations ?

I have to create a policy that does not create the situation where you have
a tape with only 5% of real data stored and 95% marked for reclamation.

Thanks.
