This does not necessarily look wrong to me. I have 3584 library and old 3575 library. Tape fills to 100% , then expiration expires some files and pct util drops. You say this has just started to happen, how long had you been operating "normally"?
What reclamation pct do you use? When you update stg pool reclamation and nothing happens, look at actlog for last few minutes and you will most likely see some hint of why nothing happened. I use compression on tape only (no client compression). I setup LTO class as 200GB. I am getting 250 to 300GB on a tape. IBM tapes with variety of data types/sizes.

There has been no change to compression settings. This has only just started to happen. I have tried to reclaim the stgpool but when I update the stg pool reclamation value that would envoke reclamation but nothing happens. q pro - no processes are active, q mount - nothing is mounted. If anyone has any ideas they would be much appreciated as I am having to throw tapes into our library daily. Clive -- This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
