Hi Mark,

When you say that it is most likely a large SQL backup file being open when
I do a backup, could you be referring to a .tar file that is used to backup
the SQL database?  And if so, because the .tar file is open it is trying to
invoke the snaphot technology?  If so, is there a way to turn off snapshot
capabilities?  Thanks again!

Please refer to page 638 in the Messages manual for TSM version 5.2, or
by running help from the TSM command-line client and paging down to
message number ANS1380E. (You may have a typo in your posting below.)

Your problem is likely being caused by an overly large SQL backup file
that is for some reason open during your backup, thus invoking the
snapshot technology in an attempt to perform a backup of it.
