You can also use the TSM client GUI - Select Restore then Find off the edit menu - use the "Backed up" criteria to enter the dates/times you are interested in.

Hi all, I was just checking my activity log on my TSM 4.2 server and noticed something odd. One of the clients (W2K server with Oracle + an imagebank) did a backup of 2588 files, amounting to almost 9Gb. I know not that many data modifies in a single day so I checked to be sure, and indeed: only 707 files (393Mb) were modified. My next guess was that, for some reason, the Oracle datafiles or backuplogs where backed up (normal Oracle backup runs through TDP as a seperate job) but when I did a point-in-time check, no oracle datafiles were found - and there shouldn't be, as they are excluded from regular backup in dsm.opt. Can anyone tell me how I can check what files it actually did backup? I really want to know what that data is... Kind regards, Rick Harderwijk Systems Administrator
