Re: [ADSM-L] Reclamation for offsite storage pools

If reclaiming copy storage pool tapes which are marked as Offsite, the Move
Data would utilize the data copy present on the in-library primary storage pool
tapes.
Do the analysis of what's happening when your reclamation is running. The more
extreme the collocation, the more tape mounts will be involved, which
aggravates elapsed time - which is why this "proxy" type of data copying is
undesirable: returning offsite tapes for reclamation is preferable.
Reclamation also has to contend for drives, and you can end up with thrashing
where there is backup/restore activity needing drives. Tapes which have not
been stored under optimal conditions may be difficult to read, which you'll be
able to perceive in Query Process showing no progress for a substantial period
in copying data. In some cases it's warranted to perform Delete Volume
Discarddata=yes for ancient offsite tapes, with a high Reusedelay value to
afford safety across a server event and to keep TSM mindful of the offsite
tapes until they are returned onsite for ultimate reuse.
