The "why" is pretty simple. The product was originally called FilesX, developed by a different company. Purchased by IBM, renamed to TSM FastBack. So it isn't integrated into TSM YET, but that doesn't mean it won't be eventually. To what extent remains to be seen. Originally designed as a disk-t

Hi Zoltan, I've seen the problem on clients with as few as 10m files. When you do a typical incremental backup, the first thing that happens is that the server pushes down to the client a list of the "active" backup set. The problem is with the client handling that list. I'm surprised you aren't

Correction: When I said "active backup set, that was a bad thing to call it. What I meant was a list of the active versions stored on the server for that client. The client compares against that list to determine if a file has changed or been deleted since the last backup. On Thu, Oct 9, 2008 at
