It sounds like L2 is talking about the Journal feature, which is available
only on the Windows platforms.
You might want to try the -incrbydate option on your daily backups, that
will avoid the long download of info from the TSM server. I've seen this
cut backup times by 80%. You still need to do an occasional regular
incremental, because the -incrbydate backup doesn't deal with deleted
files.

Subject: backup fails because inspection process takes too long.
We have an AIX client that has an extremely large number of files that is
taking a very long time to go through the inspection process and then
fails
backing up because the TSM client is spending all the time allotted,
inspecting and never has enough time to backup the actual files. We've
talked to level 2 and they said something about a new feature (no ide what
version it will be in) that will have some sort of monitoring capability
so
it will know what files have changed during the day, and then only back
those up at night instead of checking every file and every directory.
Anyone know anything about this or have any suggestions on how to get this
AIX client to successfully backup instead of spending so much time
checking
each file? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
John
