 Hi Andrew,

Is there a query to check how much data was migrated from disk to tape
every night?

We copy from disk to remote tape and something of the data from disk
spills into local tape.

I am looking for a query to tell me how of the data is spilled into
local tape? I can search the actlog but I'm looking to write a report
that would outline an estimate for over a month 

Thanks
Please let me know

First, run the query outside of a script to confirm the behavior, like
this:

   dsmc q b c:\file.txt
   echo %errorlevel%

If the errorlevel is 8, that would confirm that the script is not at
issue.

Next check your dsmerror.log for any warning messages that coincide with
the time you ran the query. If I were a betting man, my money would say
you are hitting the infamous ANS1009W DRM registry problem.

Best regards,

Andy
