<<We are up to 70 tapes going out the door each day >> Can you tell me if out of those 70 tapes if all the tapes are full? or what would you say the % utilized before going out?
If you have collocation turning off can help. In your migration and tape copy processes try to minimize the mount points. That can certainly help. Control your maxscratch counts to prevent grab of new scratch tapes from these processes. For example, I am using collocation, if I set high maxscratch count, TSM will grab all the scratch tapes it can until reaches maxscratch #. Keep expiration running Keep reclamation running onsite and offsite. Sung Y.
