Actually I think you have that reversed, the smaller volumes will tend to increase the amount of recycling because less data has to be freed up to make a larger percentage of the volume and you have a LOT more of them. Although I have heard that some sites the use small volumes only free them at recycle when they are completely empty.
Things can get even more complicated if you duplex the tapes. Brian ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO IBM-MAIN
