I'm new with the ADSM system, so I hope I don't sound to dumb here!
I've been looking at the list for a couple of months and I've gotten a lot
of good information from it so far.
Here we go, I run a select command every few days to check on the
number of reclaimable tapes we have
When I get several tapes with a PCT_RECLAIM above 70-80%
I run the reclamation process.
David - Another approach to scratch pool management is to wait until
the number of scratches reaches a comfortable minimum, and
only then start reclamation. I prefer to let attrition empty tapes

They are probably pending, do a q vol status=pending and see if the list
matches your zero capacity tapes.

can't find a direct way to tell me the number of scratch tapes I have.

For 3494's, you can use the mtilb command to count scratch tapes, or insert
tapes - whatever class you want. I've got a shared library - 4 TSM
servers, one 3494, and I run this script daily:
echo "Scratch tapes on RTP1" /home/nickpc/data/scratchcount
mtlib -l /dev/lmcp0 -qC -s012E | wc -l
I have a script that counts scratches- my 3494 is shared betweeen two tsm
instances, so I use
a table of category codes to sort out private/scratch for each tsm instance.
This, of course, is
from the library/category point of view, which may not necessarily balance 100%
to TSM's!

Hello David,
I use,
select count(*) from libvolumes w
I have the following script defined in TSM. All I have to do, is: run
q_n_scratch
(or just click on the script I want to run, from the Web GUI)
/* -*/
/* Script Name: Q_N_SCRATCH*/
/* Description: Display number of scratch */
