I've been reading about reclamation and have a question. In the Admin Guide (tsm v5.3) under section "Lowering the Reclamation Threshold" it describes what happens when the reclamation percent on a stgpool is changed while a reclamation process is running. From what I read, I understand the following . . . .
If reclamation if processing a "onsite" volume, the new threshold is used beginning with the next volume. If reclamation if processing "offsite" volumes, the new threshold is NOT used used during during the existing reclamation process. It won't be used until the existing process ends and a new one starts. Now, my question . . . . . What does "onsite" and "offsite" mean? Does "onsite" = primary pool, and "offsite" = copy pool? Does "onsite" = volume access of rw or ro, and "offsite" = volumes access of offsite? My guess is the latter: access = "offsite". What's happening is that we will be implementing direct remote tape drives to our second datacenter so that our offsite volumes will appear as a local library with local drives and tapes.
