I, too, have the max size on my log.....
Make sure you don't have any LONG running client sessions that could have some
of the log 'pinned' (log info/data that won't clear with a dbbackup).
Is your log clearing after a full db backup? If it isn't check long running
client backup sessions...
I run a full dbbackup daily...
are you bringing on new clients daily (these seem to take lots of log....)?
I used to run 2 full dbbackups just to keep myself clear of high log
utilization...
some things to consider or think about....
merry christmas.

Subject:  LOG usage over 100% - backups failing

Hello every one,
We are running tsm-server ver 3.7.20 on aix 4.3.2 with about 400 gb per day
backup.
Our adsm db-size is close to 100 gb and growing daily.
Almost each day log is overflowing with 100%, all backups fails, and server
recovers & continues
We are already using max 5.4 gb of log and can not increase any more on log
volume.

I appreciate, if anybody has any solutions this problem to reduce log usage
or extend log beyond 5.4gb.

Thanks, vijay.
