I've never heard of a journal-based backup causing a backup of the entire
machine.... do we even know whether James is running the journal service?
It might help to know how often these full backups occur, and if there is
any pattern. Also, is it possible that someone is altering any copygroup
settings, perhaps changing the MODE from MODIFIED to ABSOLUTE? Maybe the
file space is getting renamed or deleted?

Yes but it keeps the list locally and sometimes I think it gets confused
so
it just backs everything up again...

I thought journaling creates a list of changed files and prevents the
system
from scanning every file that didn't change in order to find the ones that
did change.

James, are you running the Journaling service? I think I remember a
similar
problem that was fixed by removing it.

I have a few NT4 servers with TSM 4.2.1.20 client that occasionally do a
full backup instead of an incremental. There are many files that have no
change in size or date or permissions (at least that I can see). I just
turned file auditing on to see if I can catch anything. Any ideas on what
may trigger a full backup? Thanks in advance.
