An old trick I used for many years:
to investigate a problem filesystem, do a find in that filesystem.
If the find dies, tsm definitly will die.
I'll bet your find will die, and that's why your backup will die/hang or
whatever also. A find will do a filestat on all files/dirs, actually the same

I based the increase in DB size on the 600k of database space per object

If I remember it correctly, it's 600 bytes, not 600Kb.

Is that the only cause that you upgraded your server from 4.1.x to 4.2.x ?
Yes. 4.1.4.1 was very unstable and there was no higher version available,
so we decided to upgrade to 4.2.1.4.
