Mattew, David, Many thanks for your clarifications. I reduced my reuse value, and TSM server has now enough scratch volumes to survive till we'll make the big step of replacing tape libraries with SATA disk arrays (can't wait for it ;-)). Cheers.

For the time it takes for tapes to return from pending when the reusedelay has been altered, the TSM server examines pending volumes with a view to returning them to scratch once every hour, from the time the server was started.

Changing reusedelay has an immediate effect for the stgpool you change it on, including DRM managed pools. Actually it takes about 15-20 minutes in my experience to see the effect. For offsite pool, next time you run list of tapes to come back you will have a larger list. >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 09/08/2004 6:44:29 AM >>> Hi List, Due to numerous new client installations, I'm expecting a shortage of scratch volumes in our library, and was thinking of reducing reuse delay values for our storage pools from 7 to 5 days. I was wondering if this will have an immediate effect (tape that would have return to scratch tomorrow and the day after will make it today), or if only new pending tapes will be affected by the new reuse delay. Also is there an impact on DRM, I should take care of ? TIA. Regards.
