Richard, I think it was obvious, but maybe it wasn't. People don't normally make their onsite disk pools into offsite status. When my copypool tapes get full, I mark them offsite so that reclamation will read the disk pool, not do reclamation tape to tape. But, this is what is not working. Reclamation starts, moves a little bit of data, assumably one node's worth from what I saw in move data, then ends with "success", not fully emptying the tape that is being reclamated.

From the posting, we have no idea what you're changing to read- write, as your posting talks of only a primary disk pool and a 3584 containing 3592 tapes for your offsite pool. I read the posting four times, and still don't understand it. You may want to post a re-writing, to fully explain the apparent missing ingredients. Note that message ANR1163W is explained, for the general case, in ADSM QuickFacts.
