Geoff,
Make sure you are not using the QUIET option (just in case you are). QUIET
is nice when things are going well, but it is best to not use it when
diagnosing problems. Assuming that you are not using QUIET, then make sure
you see the 'Using Journal for ...' messages. If the messages are not
there, then a couple of things occur to me:
1) Was this the first incremental backup you ran after turning on
journaling? If so, then this is normal: the first backup will be a full
incremental (not to be confused with full backup) so that the journal
database(s) and server can be synched. Or did you do anything else (like
reboot) that may have caused the journal to require resynchronization?
2) Do you have all desired drives configured to use journaled backup, via
the JournaledFileSystems parameter? What does your tsmjbbd.ini file look
like?
Regards,
Andy

This is set to the default and there is no error message in this log
I guess I'll stop and restart the service and see what kind of reports I
get
tonight.
