Hi, Burak.
The Admin Guide, in Chapter 9, Managing Storage Pools and Volumes, the
section "Reclaiming Space in Sequential Access Storage Pools" > "Reclamation
for Copy Storage Pools" > "Reclamation for Offsite Volumes" explains what
happens. �It's on page 156 of my Admin Guide 4.2 for AIX.
It basically says that for onsite volumes, reclamation usually happens when
status="FULL" and when the percent reclaimable is greater than the stgpool's
reclamation percentalge. �For volumes with access="OFFSITE", it doesn't
bother with the Full part, it just compares the pct_reclaim.
I hope this answers your question.

Subject: about DRM
Hi,
I am trying to understand DRM concept especially the reclamation part.
As the volumes become "FULL" they will be reclaimed when the data is low
(define in pool's RECLAIM value)
even if they are offsite copies. The primary pool volumes onsite will be
used
and
reclaimed EMPTY copy pool volumes will be returned.
Now my point comes. I have a schedule to backup primary pool every day to
copy pool. I have one FILLING volume everyday to send to offsite. Then,
there
will
be 20 volumes offsite (with FILLING status, and very little data on it) What
is
the DRM's solution
to reclaim such volumes? Is it to bring them onsite and use �"MOVE DATA"
command?
Regards,
Burak
