Len, I would open a requirement for the > 2 gig limit. Also, where do you need the limit to be? 4 gig ? higher ?
The limits of the subfile cachesize have not changed. Is 1024 MB not sufficient ? If not, what would you like to have? Once again, if you need work in this area please open a requirement. If you do not code the cachesize in dsm.opt it takes the default value of 10 MB. Thanks, Jim J.P.

(Jim) Smith >TSM Client Development >[EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello Jim We are a big user of the sub file feature and this explains some of our long ru nning backups. Any chance that TSM Client Development will increase the 2gig limit. Also in the early doc it said that the client subfile client cache size had a limit of 1024meg(SUBFILECACHESIZE). Is this still the limit for SUBFILECACHESIZE? And is the SUBFILECACHESIZE statement still required in the dsm.opt file?
