Wow... Richard, respect! This one works, you again saved my day!!!! Here is the final working statement, so it's 'logged' on the ADSM-L list:
select node_name, filespace_name, hl_name, ll_name from backups where (upper(ll_name) like '%LOG%' or upper(ll_name) like '%ARCHIVE%' or upper(ll_name) like '%DBDATA%' or upper(ll_name) like '%DBINDEX%' or upper(ll_name) like '%DUMP%' or upper(ll_name) like '%AUDIT%') and upper(hl_name) like '%ORA\_%' ESCAPE '\' and node_name='KL100AT0' Thank you VERY much!

No, you wouldn't. But... :-) Your thoughts are keyed on dealing with your site's directory name being like mount/data*/ora_* where the architects decided to have an underscore in the name, which is fine. But you're now being defeated by that underscore because, in a Select LIKE, an underscore is a wildcard for any single character! An example of using this: select NODE_NAME, PLATFORM_NAME from NODES where upper(PLATFORM_NAME) like 'LINUX__' to report any Linux86 clients, versus LinuxPPC. Unfortunately, TSM's Select does not conform to the standard that the backslash char be an escape, to turn off the special meaning of the underscore as in like '%ORA\_%' but, fortunately, it allows you to define an escape character, as in like '%ORA\_%' ESCAPE '\' So, mull that over, and give it a try. Life is seldom simple. R. ******************************************************** For information, services and offers, please visit our web site: http://www.klm.com.
