Does "full backup" mean that all files are backed up? I have seen this
on several occasions:

due to the DST error in some client versions (see APAR IC28544),

when the client's admin changed the ACLs on all files on the client,

when a filespace was renamed on the client,

...

I do not think, that this is a TSM database problem.
