Hello Rick Look at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/tsminfo/v6/index.jsp
Reference / Server commands / Administrative commands / Define / Define DEVCLASS FILE TSM calculate space remmaining in each directory. by cons, it is preferable to pre-allocate volumes. Furthermore, it should not create too large volumes. In our case, we have 500 volumes of 20 GB, which makes it easier to reclaim.

The Admin Guide simply says that TSM decides, but gives no more idea than that. In a bunch of searching I've found no real explanation of the decision process (least amount of data, least full directory, round-robin, number of volumes, alignment of the stars).
