Ithink there is a mistake in version. If you mention 6.2.1.0, try to install 6.2.1.1. There are some bugs related to memory allocation which are fixed in 6.2.1.1. At least, client 6.2.1.1 helped to fix my problems with memory allocation.

To a first approximation, this doesn't seem to be the problem - I can see the "extensive" memory usage even with a backup restricted to file systems which do not contain symlinks at all. (The whole system's symlink structure is somewhat challenging to verify.) OTOH, do you have evidence that "dsmc" (meanwhile upgraded to 6.6.2.1, without a noticable diffence in behaviour) still might contain such "weird" bugs? After all, TSM "backup" ought not follow symlinks at all. Though I do remember that in olden times, circular links and stuff would lead to "dsmc" aborting ... (no outright errors here, with the client under consideration). Best regards, Wolfgang J. Moeller<[email protected]> Tel. +49 551 201-1516 ... not representing ...
