Keith, we worked with Tivoli to fix this problem. There was a memory leak in the ACL processing routine. The latest TSM Client for SGI fixed this problem and a previous patch level has the fix. I believe the current level is 4.2.3.0.

Importance: High Hello IBM, We have an sgi client with about 3 filesystems of about 500 gig each, and zillions of files. Can't get them to back up. Same situation, scheduler drifts away. No error messages. We are thinking that the scheduler building of the index blows a gasket somewhere, and that maybe using the virtual filespace option would break it up into smaller more manageable indexes? Any thoughts?
