I read messages from other TSM admins and their recommendation were to run an audit from time to time, as a consequence of continuous growing of the database. I just want to be prepared
That would be bad advice - do not capriciously run an AUDITDB! AUDITDB is categorized as a salvage utility. You would run it only if severe database errors were in evidence, and then only if so directed by TSM Support, after having pursued other database problem resolution measures. Running AUDITDB can result in loss of data and/or further damage to the database.
See entry 'dsmserv AUDITDB' in http://people.bu.edu/rbs/ADSM.QuickFacts for further words on this.
Leave your database alone: if there's no indication of a problem, there is no problem.
