What is the REUSE parm set at for the storagepools in question? My observation is that at TSM 7.1.5.1 & 2, the space shows as DELETED until the REUSE period is up and expiration has run.

I read this: "If you delete a file space in a deduplicated storage pool, the file space name DELETED is displayed in the output of the QUERY OCCUPANCY command *until all deduplication dependencies are removed.*" from here https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__&d=AwIBaQ&c=SgMrq23dbjbGX6e0ZsSHgEZX6A4IAf1SO3AJ2bNrHlk&r=dOGCMY197NTNH1k_wcsrWS3_fxedKW4rpKJ8cHCD2L8&m=BugyxVJBywaHSMwX0E2BZvOsFdo93kQ9-OrgkfQVUTc&s=6BnrPoLTle6fRkvZtWuULDwYDS-ffudoSemI1wbN35Y&e= www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSGSG7_7.1.4/srv.reference/r_cmd_filespace_delete.html And my question is, how can I see where this process is at? The customer renamed 200+ VM's and all the old filespaces are being removed from Spectrum Protect but seem stuck in this DELETED state, it seems like all of them to be honest. show dedupdeleteinfo show's nothing, everything is idle there. I don't know where else too look. It seems like the data is not released because the tape utilisation has not dropped, I did not expect much to happen on disk (deduplication) but I did expect a big drop on tape that has not occurred. Has anybody here seen anything like this before? Regards, Stefan
