Ditto on the 'bummer' comment. I had noticed the 1GB subfilecachesize limitation and wondered about the implications. I guess we'll continue to backup the 400GB/night. We have 4 new TS1120 drives in our 3494 which will make it a little less painful. Go Big Red Sam Sheppard San Diego Data Processing Corp.

I didn't realize the cache directory was limited in size and that it held complete copies of files. Checking this, it seems you may be correct about full copies of files being made in the cache directory. The size of the cache directory is only 1GB according to the Users Guide, and that is what the EditPreferences GUI restricts you to as well.... I don't understand how subfile backup can work for files up to 2GB in size, if the subfilecachesize is restricted to 1024 MB. >In short, you can only manage a total of about 2 GB of files for subfile >backup, and only files less than 2 GB in size are eligible.
