David Moore wrote >> Any ideas on why the TSM DB is shrinking? This is going to be down to data expiration. Does your activity log show that expiration is running longer and expiring more. Did you have the opposite pattern a while back where you database grew over a short period. What I find really useful for explaining where the data is expiring is to keep periodic query occupancy files. Then you can see by comparing the files which nodes are growing or have lost the large number of objects to explain your shrinking database
