0Idwela is to set the physicla libarry itself for auto clean and let it handle
it. There has been discussion obver the last year about cleaning of LTO tapes.
General consensus (and actual resilts) is that cleaning is not used much on
them.
I have a 3584 with 8 LTO1 drives for two years now, hasn't cleaned once at last
check a few months ago. No problems with tapes though.

Hello, everyone. Hope you are well.
I wish to setup automatic cleanings from within our TSM server 5.2.2. I
have 4 LTO2 drives inside a StorageTek L700 library. Does anyone know
the recommended cleaning frequency for this type of environment?
