You might want to check and see that dirmc is set in your dsm.opt . You may have many directory entries but not alot of data out there.

The volumes to be reclaimed show 0.00 % utilized, 99% Reclaimable. If I query the contents, there are 1000's of items on the volume. I can run reclaimation on the pool, and it only shows 4 volumes to reclaim, but it won't finish in 18 hours. There are no error messages in the logs. Is there something special about this kind of data? I'm running with a limited number of tape drives, so I have to kill the reclaimation job at 3:00 am so I can start writing data to off-site tapes. But you can't just change the storage pool and have the reclaimation stop, I have to kill the specific process number. So everyday I setup a schedule to kill the job number of the copy dirs reclaimation at 3:00 am. More tape drives are coming, but there's got to be a better way. Windows 2003 Server SP3 TSM 5.1.5.0 It seems like maybe the problem actually started when I went from 4.1 to 4.2, but perhaps that's just when the data and client volumes started to grow a great deal.
