Error description

• When containers are added to the reclamation work queue and
  further processing occurs against those containers before the
  container reclamation thread processes them one of the two
  things below can happen leading to the worker reclaim
  containers process failing with an ANR0985I message:
  
  ANR0985I
  Process N for Reclaim Containers (Worker) running in the
  BACKGROUND completed with completion state FAILURE at 12:34:56
  PM.
  
  1) When a container placed on the reclamation work queue
  is deleted. For this case, a SCRECLAIM trace will have the
  following message: 'Move container for cntrid <cntrid> failed
  with rc 1116'
  2) When a container placed on the reclamation
  work queue has all of it's chunks deleted. For this case, a
  SCRECLAIM trace will have the following message: 'Move
  container for cntrid <cntrid> failed with rc 3323'. The message
  'ANR3682W Container <containername> is empty and cannot be
  moved' message may also be seen.
  
  In both cases it is also
  likely that the parent Reclaim Container process will also
  fail:
  
  ANR0986I Process NN for RECLAIM CONTAINERS running in
  the BACKGROUND processed Y items for a total of X bytes with a
  completion state of FAILURE at 12:56:34 PM.
