I am pretty sure it isn't a growth in the # of files. While the # of files
backed-up did spike a little, it doesn't correspond with the bytes
transfered. I think it is one or two big files.
Here is a snapshot from the SMF ACCOUNTING RECORDS generated by the server
(OS390) for the past 8-days.

Do you still have the older sessions in your actlog? Or you could look in
the summary table. Try to see if it's because of a lot more files, or
just
more data. If not many more files, look in the contents table for files
larger than 30GB. If none found, gradually decrease the size until you
find some. That's what I'd do. Those queries might take some time,
though.

I have an SGI client node that while normally sends <= 1.5GB of data, is
now sending 36GB+.
Without accessing the client itself, how can I find out what is causing
this increase in TSM traffic ?
I have contacted the client owner, but their response is taking too long
and this spike it wreaking havoc on TSM.
