Have a look at journal based backups on the TSM client. It is new with TSM 4.2. This new service records changes to files on the client as they are being made. Then, with this information available, the journal directs the backup process and the client does not have to review every file it has to determine what to backup. Real neat for clients like yours!

The client is a dual 700 Mhz and the server is a dual 1.0 GigHz machine. I have over 2.2 million files on our data server and thus it spends most of its time inspecting files that have not changed. I cannot seem to get it to inspect any more than 100 files/sec. This means that my backup takes 6 hours even if nothing changes. Does anyone have any suggestions of how I can make file inspections quicker?
