How often are you doing reclamation on your vault pool?  We used to do
reclamation daily and found ourselves in a similar situation.  We changed
to only reclaiming once a week and like that much better.

tape use question






Just a quick question to the experienced TSmers out there

Does anybody have any idea or suggestions on how we can slow down our tape
usage.
We are up to 70 tapes going out the door each day and its growing more by
the month.
We have 6 ,,3594 tape libraries , about 60 win NT servers 12 AIX boxes not
including a SP maxed out.
We find our self constantly running vault retrieve since the tape shortage
is getting worse by the day.
Any suggestions would help .

TSM version 5.1

Thanks
