Thanks to all who responded to my problem.
Defragmenting the database using UNLOADDB/LOADDB seemed to solve
my problem.
Adjusting some settings in DSMSERV.OPT and installing the newest 4.2 client
further improved performance.
Thanks for your support!
Kind regards

We did see something similar. The network settings were set on
autorecogniate. After that there was a mix off full and half-duplex, which
caused a lot of collisions.

A couple of things:
1) Do you want EXCLUDE or EXCLUDE.DIR? Your first example has the former,
and you second has the latter. If you want to use EXCLUDE.DIR, specify the
directory name, but omit the ending slash-asterisk, i.e.:
WRONG: exclude.dir *:\...\Temporary Internet Files\*
RIGHT:
It has been a lng time since I used the TSO Admin, but if it still
similar to the other admin clients, then it should be using a *client*
options file. The options file you have posted is for your TSM server.
This would certainly explain the problem.

It depends on how long you keep your database backups. What you would need
to do would be to recover your TSM database to a point-in-time when the

That information is in the BACKUPS table, you can get it with SELECT.

I think that you are refering to doing tape reclamation. Tape reclamation
will not occur until your tapes have been marked as full and then the
percentage utilized drops below your reclamation threshold. Reclamation
will not occur for tapes that are filling. to do this you would have to

It depends when the files were expired and if the tapes have not been

Then you could restore your database backup to before the files where

The TDPs tend to create separate filespaces for the database objects. I
usually do a q occ report and see how many objects there are in the
