The information that we are archiving consists of two repositories, DB2
backups and backup of our Pro/I information.
The information should not change as much as it is. The repositories grow
daily, and the other backups are consistence on a nightly basis. We do not
use compression here, due to the information being backed up is not
considerably large. Our archives average around 69 GB nightly. I just find
it hard how it can have a range of about 500 MB from the low end to the high
end. We use these archives as our disaster recovery, I am just perplexed on
the range. If it was a smaller amount, I would not be as concerned, but 500
MB is a big difference.
The information that use to determine how much was archived is taken from
the Activity Log in TSM. Should I look elsewhere to see if this
information is incorrect?

What is it you are archiving? Are you sure that the data would
not be less on some days? If there are not a lot of files, then
look at dsmsched.log on the client and see what files and sizes
were archived. This may show why it is less some days, or point
to files/directories where it is less.
(Maybe you have less data on weekends).

Hello *SMers,
I have a question for all those people out there that know more
about TSM than I do. Can someone explain to me why there would be a
fluctuation in the amount of data backed up in an archive? We run a
nightly archive on our system, but the amount of GB backed up are different.
I can understand if the information would just be growing but some days it
is less than the day before. Any explanation?
We are running
TSM 4.1.2.0
AIX 4.3.3
Any information would be helpful.
Thanks in advance,
Bill Wheeler
