Copypool reclamation is performed by copying data that is still valid on
the tape that is being reclaimed from the *source* primary stgpool again to
a new copypool tape.

e.g.  if files a,b,c are all still unexpired on copypool tape c1 and d is
unexpired on c2, they also still exist in the primary pool -  tapepool - a
is on tape t1, b and d are on t2 and c is on t3.

The copypool reclamation will copy a from t1, b and d from t2 and c from t3
onto a new copypool tape c9.  c1 and c2 will then go pending until the
reusedelay is up.

So, unless your primary data is still on disk or sequential disk files, the
copypool reclaim is a tape to tape operation.

Subject:  Copypool Reclamation


Sorry if this has been asked before. Is it possible to
do tape copypool reclamation with a single tape drive
? The reclaimpool option isn't allowed for a copypool,
so I can't see how to define file (disk) space to do
it. Since I can do reclaim of primary tape pools using
a reclaimpool on disk, I don't understand the
limitation for tape copypools.

Thanks,
