Still kinda strange that TSM can't simply pause a task instead of
blundly canceling it.

To expand that "no", TSM has a hardset list of tape tasks, restores
being at the top. Backups are at the bottom of this hierarchy, and other
tape operations are kinda amorphously between them. It makes sense,
actually. Restores are the real reason why we're all here, right?

There is nothing to be done for resuming tape operations after a restore
is done, short of an external script that looks for the number of
reclamation processes running. You can't start the old one up again (to
get your count back to five) without stopping them all, and then
restarting them.
