Robert -

You asked this question on March 19th, and I gather you haven't yet  
found an answer on this.


This sounds to me like an artifact of using the TSM 5.4+  
MEMORYEFficientbackup DISKCACHEMethod, for backups where the client  
has insufficient memory or wordlength memory addressability to handle  
a normal Incremental backup.  If so, it would be dsmc operating on  
the files.  (CAD is nothing more than an initiator in client  
scheduling, not involved in backups.)


You haven't yet said in your postings if you've found any problem  
indications in the dsmsched.log or dsmerror.log: be sure to check  
those.  If nothing, check that the disk being used for the cache  
location is capacious enough to serve the need: the DISKCACHELocation  
may be inappropriate.  There might be an entry in your Windows Event  
Log about problems with space.  If DISKCACHEMethod is indeed being  
used, you might re-evaluate if it remains the appropriate choice.   
Beyond that, contact TSM Support, as there is no mention of  
TsmcacheDB or SystemExcludecache elements in any of the doc.
