For those of you with Servergraph, there is a standard report on missed filespaces. If you sort it by days since last backup, it often shows you filespaces that missed even though the rest of the machine backed up. Those tend to be filespaces that have been removed from a system or renamed. We have cleaned up TB of wasted TSM space that way.
