You probably have database damage, which can result from running the server without the safeguards recommended in the Admin Guide manual. Running Query CONtent ... DAmaged=Yes on the volume may reveal the files in trouble. Richard Sims http://people.bu.edu/rbs/

q content damaged=yes shows nothing also, just as q content showed nothing. Is it possible, that since I had deduplication turned on, it turned the files into chunks and it has way more chunks obviously than files, and that's why it's taking so long? I never got any deduplication, because the

Intended for firewall security, the sessioninitiation property on the nodes may work for this. You will have to disable the setting if anyone actually wanted to do a manual backup or restore from the client side, but that's a quick upd n Only the TSM Server would be allowed to start client

Len, Thanks for your reply. No, we did not upgrade any of the TSM software, including the tape drivers. We were running the TIVsm-tsmscsi-6.1.3-1.x86_64 version both before and after the RedHat 5.2 to 5.4 upgrade. I have since found out that there is a 6.1.3-3 version of the driver.
