Re: archive problem/question
Given that you've only got 100,000 files in the directory, and it has inspected 3,000,000 files, I'd guess something is wrong. I've seen Unix systems that have inadvertently gotten circular link definitions, and TSM will blindly follow them over & over again, showing this type of behaviour. You might want to set archsymlinkasfile=no on the client and try it again (but read the client manual for this first, to make sure that this does what you want it to do). -Lloyd On Wed, 14 Jul 2004 09:19:36 -0500 "Cain, Jason (Corporate)" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote thusly: > I am in the process of doing an archive for the first time of a unix > file system.

Re: archive problem/question
I will try using ARCHSYMlinkasfile=no and give you an update... -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Hooft, Jeroen Sent: Wednesday, July 14, 2004 9:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: archive problem/question Lots of symbolic links?
