Hi,
Depends how many clients you have I guess - if you're backing up one or two
clients then I couldn't agree more, but if you're looking after SP's then
the gui approach might not be so appropriate. But hey, each to their own!!!

I think it's a lot faster to let the client find it.
Start the client (dsm on AIX)
Click RESTORE
Pull down VIEW, Active and Inactive
Click the SEARCH icon (the magnifying glass on the AIX client)
Type in the name of the filesystem as "start path"
Type in the name of the file to search for (you can search on partial
names)
Click SEARCH
Let the client do the walking!

Hi Henrik,
Try something simple, like:
select NODE_NAME, FILESPACE_NAME, FILE_NAME, FILE_SIZE from CONTENTS
where FILE_NAME like '% init.dat'
This should find all instances of 'init.dat' whether backups or archives.
I'm sure you could probably format this better, but the bare bones are
there :o) Anyone else with any advances on the above?

Subject: locate files in the tsm database
A filesystem on a tsm node contained a lot of different init.dat files
(all erased).
Is it possible to make a query in the tsm database to find out where these
files are positioned in the filesystem - some kind of select command?
