ZjQcmQRYFpfptBannerEnd Good Day, this is my first time posting. it is great to talk to everyone here. so i have an issue where mmbackup is not working properly and i don't know why. Problem: mmbackup doesn't find any files that are eligible for backup. i used to work with dsmc and it is working fine but i want to employ the snapshot option within mmbackup. here are my steps: 1. backup to tsm with mmbackup using the full backup option . that took around one month 2. tried to do an incremental backup with mmbackup against a snapshot (Failed) 3. tried to rebuild shadow database then backup but that failed as well 4. tried dsmc incremental which found eligible files and worked i want to use snapshots which seems to be problematic please let me know if you have any recommendations or ideas command used: mmbackup /gpfs/mariana/home/ -S home_snapshot_2024-01-25-09-23 -t incremental -L 2 -d --scope inodespace -v logs: DEBUGtsbackup33:oldShadow found, validShadows: 1 DEBUGtsbackup33:shadow DB /gpfs/mariana/home/.mmbackupShadow.1.gv-backup.fileset format version 1400 .. .. ..
