Also check the "Copy Frequency" setting that can be found Backup Copy Group Settings that is applicable to that client. If the frequency is set to more than one then TSM will only backup one copy that day, if set to 10 TSM then waits 10 days to get a copy of the file regardless if it changed in the past 9 days.
The selective will grab a copy of the file regardless of that setting. -----Original Message----- From: Jozef Zatko [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, July 30, 2003 5:03 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Multiple backup of a file that doesn't change? Hi Flemming, this could be easily done by selective backup of this file by somebody after normal incremental backup. Using selective backup you can backup file as many times as you want. During selective backup TSM client does not check if file was changed or not. Hope this helps Ing. Jozef Zatko Login a.s.

Hi all First of all... I'm not drunk, on drugs or anything like that - only a severe headache.... I have a NetWare 5.1 SP3 (I know it's old...), TSA5UP12 is applied, TSM Client 5.1.6.0 - and running a normal scheduled incremental backup every night... and still I've a screendump in front of me where I can read the following: Opticut.exe (active), Modified: 01-12-1999 15:27:12, Created: 08-06-2001 18:19:25, Backed Up: 28-07-2003 21:15:17 Opticut.exe (inactive), Modified: 01-12-1999 15:27:12, Created: 08-06-2001 18:19:25, Backed Up: 25-07-2003 03:31:21 How can this happen????

What are the sizes of the files being backed up (in general)? What is the size of the cpu that is being used on the server? How much ram is available? and last but not least what are the comm buffer settings on the client?
