Ah, OK.... I couldn't see the forest through the trees... ;-) Joe Crnjanski's post hits the nail on the head. See the client manual chapter on the INCLUDE option, subsection "Compression, encryption, and adaptive subfile backup processing". It discusses the point that Joe made. All EXCLUDE statements are processed prior to INCLUDE.COMPRESSION, INCLUDE.ENCRYPTION, and INCLUDE.SUBFILE.

The problem is when the encryption on, the amount of data should be the same as when it runs without encryption - or have I misunderstood something ? If I make a backup of a node without encryption, and it sends e.g. 20 GB of data - the the amount ought to be the same, if I delete all data on the TSM server, and then tries to do the exact same backup with encryption enabled (of course remembering to change the client dsm.opt file and restart the dsmc application) Regards, Brian --- Brian Ipsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 04/21/2004 07:04 Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" To [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc Subject Problems with encrypted backup Hi, I've tried to solve this issue before without luck. I'm trying to make a backup with encryption on a new node/client. The node is registered on the server, and the first login from the node (using dsmc and a simple dsm.opt file only specifying the nodename, passwordgenerate and the server) has been made (where it asks for nodename and password). Then I quit dsmc again. My first backup dsm.opt file (with encryption) NODENAME TSM-MYTEST1 PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE TCPSERVERADDRESS 172.16.7.136 DOMAIN D: schedlogretention 15 DateFormat 2 COMPRESSION ON Encryptkey Save EXCLUDE * EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Network Trash Folder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\TheFindByContentFolder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\ThevolumeSettingsFolder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Temporary Items\...\*" INCLUDE.Encrypt "D:\BilledArkiv\...\*" INCLUDE.Encrypt "D:\Bogholder\...\*" I assume, that I have to set EncryptKey to SAVE - otherwise the scheduler won't be able to make backups. A backup using these options and running "dsmc i" gives this result: Total number of objects inspected: 149,290 Total number of objects backed up: 25,189 Total number of objects updated: 0 Total number of objects rebound: 0 Total number of objects deleted: 0 Total number of objects expired: 0 Total number of objects failed: 0 Total number of bytes transferred: 8.40 MB Data transfer time: 0.49 sec Network data transfer rate: 17,247.31 KB/sec Aggregate data transfer rate: 21.27 KB/sec Objects compressed by: 0% Elapsed processing time: 00:06:44 If I then change dsm.opt to the options below (thereby removing encryption): NODENAME TSM-MYTEST1 PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE TCPSERVERADDRESS 172.16.7.136 DOMAIN D: schedlogretention 15 DateFormat 2 COMPRESSION ON EXCLUDE * EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Network Trash Folder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\TheFindByContentFolder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\ThevolumeSettingsFolder\...\*" EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Temporary Items\...\*" INCLUDE "D:\BilledArkiv\...\*" INCLUDE "D:\Bogholder\...\*" And delete the old data in my TSM Server (using "del filespace") - and then makes a new backup using "dsmc i" - the the result is: Total number of objects inspected: 149,290 Total number of objects backed up: 144,088 Total number of objects updated: 0 Total number of objects rebound: 0 Total number of objects deleted: 0 Total number of objects expired: 0 Total number of objects failed: 0 Total number of bytes transferred: 87.28 GB Data transfer time: 1,394.87 sec Network data transfer rate: 65,618.49 KB/sec Aggregate data transfer rate: 5,848.74 KB/sec Objects compressed by: 11% Elapsed processing time: 04:20:49 What is going wrong ??
