Hi,
I am trying to understand what TSM does with reclamation of large files.
We have a filepool of 10G-volumes and I see the TSM-server moving a 64G
file during reclamation. This file is from an Exchange-backup.
It seems to me that TSM moves the whole file to other volumes and not
just the small part of it that was residing on a volume and causing the
reclamation to start in the first place. A "q vol f=d" tells me that the
current input volume during reclamation is full with no reclaimable
space.
So for me this sounds a lot of waste of disk I/O. I am curiuos to know
if there is a good reason for this behavior or how to avoid it(except
creating larger volumes).
Best regards
Hans C. Riksheim
