Hi -
Just upgraded from TSM client release 3.7.1 to 3.7.2 on an NT 4.0 workstation, and
noticed some strange goings on....
On 8/19 (last incremental under TSM 3.7.1, my machine had 39K files on it, and on that
day I backed up 106 files - a pretty average day for this particular machine. I
skipped a few days of backups, and then today, I ran the first incremental under the
3.7.2 release. It told me that I now had 40, 317 files on the machine (approximately
600 more), but the unusual thing was that it backed up 10K files again, and updated
another 27K. Does anyone know why this all took place. Interestingly, the sum of the
two numbers does not add up to what was inspected (only 17 files were expired), so it
didn't touch everything, but it was close. Additionally, some of the files that were
backed up were files that haven't been touched sine they were placed on the machine,
such as the installation packages for NT and Lotus SmartSuite.
If this is normal behavior, I need to know before I plan on a deployment; and if it is
normal, I am wondering why. Sort of sounds like a bug.....
