Try this process: Run QUERY CONTENT on the volumes that won't reclaim and see if it comes back with 'No Data'. If so then change the volume to READO, run AUDIT VOLUME 'volume name' FIX=YES. Then DELETE VOLUME 'volume name' DISCARDDATA=yes' BUT ONLY IF VOLUME CONTENT CAME BACK WITH NO DATA.

Its possible. Just create retention policies that retain unlimited copies with a nolimit retention. That way once a volume is full, it will stay full because nothing will expire. Not that I would recommend it, but it is possible. Thanks, Robert Rippy. From: Remeta, Mark [EMAIL PROTECTED] on

loaddb performance

We have a 4.2.1.9 TSM server running under OS/390. The database has been getting bigger and performance has been getting worse. We decided to run a test to see how long it would take to dump and reload the database. We ran a 'prepare' command to create a recovery plan based on our onsite database

Re: TSM Policy Model

Even unlimited copies/retention wouldn't guarantee this: if someone deleted a bunch of files on their client drive, then they will be expired during the next incremental backup. If the deleted files happen to comprise 95% of a tape, the voile! you now have a full volume with only 5% valid data.
