The chart that is shown in Figure 7-2 indicates how many seconds are required to reclaim all  files in the source tape. With prior LTFS EE versions, this process takes around 1 second per  file. Starting with IBM Spectrum Archive EE V1R1.1.3 (PGA2.2), it is almost 10 times faster  when the source and the target tape cartridge are on the same node. The yellow line shows performance just for a reference when  scp  and  ssh rm  commands are  used on the same node by IBM Spectrum Archive EE. When the source and the target tapes  are on a different node, the performance is worse than this reference because it requires  metadata access to get the list of files in the source tape. In this case for the quick reconcile  operation, the total time of reclamation might become longer than the case without the quick  reconcile.  The time required to have the quick reconcile varies by the number of files to be reconciled.  The quick reconcile includes removing files that are not required anymore from an IBM  Spectrum Archive EE tape. New messages are added to log so that a user can see the progress of the operation. Some  examples are shown in Example 7-89. When the option to limit the number of files for reclamation is used and one or more files  remain in the source tape, the following message is shown in the log file: GLESL332I(ltfsee:4404): Reclamation has been partially performed. Run the  reclamation again for tape JCA811JC. Example 7-89 New log message for reclamation enhancement GLESR051I(01439): 17608 of 22000 files have been processed. GLESR052I(01505): Removing files from source tape TYO118L5. GLESR053I(01528): 1000 of 22000 files have been removed.
