Hallo Ahmend, at first to understand mmbackup: you should know that mmbackup use a fs or independend fileset snapshots (--scope) to compare the content of shadow db with the generated snapshot. This compare generated filelist that are then used to make a selective backup over dsmc. To generate these mentioned snapshot you must paramized mmbackup with -S. If you had trouble you should run at first a rebuild oft he shadowdb with --rebuild. I think a backup over a snapshot itself doesnt work.

Problem: mmbackup doesn't find any files that are eligible for backup. i used to work with dsmc and it is working fine but i want to employ the snapshot option within mmbackup. here are my steps: 1. backup to tsm with mmbackup using the full backup option . that took around one month 2. tried to do an incremental backup with mmbackup against a snapshot (Failed) 3. tried to rebuild shadow database then backup but that failed as well 4. tried dsmc incremental which found eligible files and worked i want to use snapshots which seems to be problematic please let me know if you have any recommendations or ideas command used: mmbackup /gpfs/mariana/home/ -S home_snapshot_2024-01-25-09-23 -t incremental -L 2 -d --scope inodespace -v logs: DEBUGtsbackup33:oldShadow found, validShadows: 1 DEBUGtsbackup33:shadow DB /gpfs/mariana/home/.mmbackupShadow.1.gv-backup.fileset format version 1400 .. .. ..
