Thank you guys,

Hello
I think, there's an option called SKIPACLUPDATCHECK, which can be used
to prevent incr backups just because of changing ACL-infos.
Give it a try.

Hi all,
if we change the ownership (chmod/chgrp) or the ACLs of files/folders on
our GPFS-filesystem, all affected
data will be backed up again from TSM because the ctime was changed -
same behaviour on a XFS filesystem.
We often have to change recursively the ACLs of a 15TB-folder and so
this 15TB are backup up nearly daily...
I understand the necessity of backing up metadata as ownership or ACLs
:) But is there an other possibility?
Can we backup just the metadata of changed files instead of all the
data? Depends this on the filesystem?
Thanks,
Alex
