Is there a way to determine the number of tapes in a stgpool that are eligible for reclamation?
I tried the following sql on all our TSM instances: select stgpool_name, \ count(*) \ from volumes \ where pct_reclaim \> 64 \ and devclass_name like '%TAPE%' \ group by stgpool_name " It returned a list, but when I went and ran "reclaim stgpool <name> threshold=65" many of the pools returned that there were no volumes to be reclaimed. I think I need more qualifiers on the select. We currently have reclamation running automatically with a reclaim pct of 65% on the stgpool. I'm trying to move to manually running reclamation during a window. I don't want to just issue reclaim stgpool cmds all at once for all instances to prevent a tape drive storm. I want to start them gradually, with the stgpools with the most tapes to be reclaimed starting first.
