Unless things have changed in the last versions, stalling is only for opportunistic capture. Stalling does not apply to the holds targeter. During the stall, the targeter process can identify a copy outside the pickup library and it can be captured by the owning library and transited for the hold. Also, stalling does not take into consideration whether or not the pickup library owns a copy or not. Opportunistic capture is stalled regardless.

If we retarget Holds every 24 hours and set the soft stalling for 2 days will the Hold that has targeted the pickup location's copy target another available/eligible copy in 24 hours or will the Hold continue to target the pickup location's copy until after the 2 days stalling period? I have found the soft stalling is more effective if set system wide than if it set for an individual library. Thanks for any information you can share.
