Does anyone know of an option that can be put into the dsm.opt for TSM
5.1.5 on a Novell 5.1 sp5 machine that does not continually try to backup a
file that a user deleted after the original backup list was created during
a scheduled incremental job?

We have found that when there is a large change of data (over 2 gig's) on a
Novell Server, the scheduled job looks at the files, compares to the
include/exclude list and then starts the incremental backup. By the time it
reaches certain files, they might have been deleted. (ie. user deletes a
document on a shared drive) TSM continually tries to find the file, errors
out and then tries over and over again. A backup job that takes normally 30
minutes now goes on for over 12 hours until we cancel the session from the
server.
