Hi,

In the beginning of December we upgraded to z/OS 1.13 and CA-DISK v12.5.
Since then we’ve seen increased CPU and elapsed time in our CA-DISK incremental 
backup job.
We tracked the reason for the increase to the backup of ZFS datasets.
It looks like these datasets are being backed up every day, even though they do 
not change.
The root ZFS is 47265 tracks, and there are several other large ZFS datasets 
for websphere and z/OSMF.

We tested this on one specific ZFS, and ran to backup jobs one after the other. 
The dataset was backed up both times.

Our previous version were z/OS 1.11 and CA-DISK v12.
Has anyone seen such behavior?
Does anyone know what can be causing this?
Our main incremental backup job says:
//INCR1    EXEC DMS,COND=(0,NE,BEFORDMS.COPY),REGION=9M,TIME=300
//SYSIN    DD *
*=================================================================
SCAN REALVOLS
SELECT VOLUMES=(TSO/,CAS/,PUB/,ELEC/,TIME/,
  COM/,ADA/,DBS/,PRJ/,ACT/,MSM/,
  ARC/,IOA/,COLD/,Z1B/,Z13/,POP/),
  CRITERIA=(MODIFIED,EQ,YES),
  DSNAMES=(/)
EXCLUDE TABLE=INCREXCL
BACKUP RETPD=184

We opened an issue with CA and are waiting for their response.

Thanks

Gadi
