Rick,
The select below suitably tailored for node_name and backup_date  will
tell you what was in that backup

SELECT HL_NAME,LL_NAME  FROM BACKUPS -
WHERE NODE_NAME='YOURNODE' -
AND BACKUP_DATE BETWEEN '2005-01-04 21:00' AND '2005-01-05 07:00'

What does it backup?






Hi all,

I was just checking my activity log on my TSM 4.2 server and noticed
something odd. One of the clients (W2K server with Oracle + an imagebank)
did a backup of 2588 files, amounting to almost 9Gb.

I know not that many data modifies in a single day so I checked to be
sure, and indeed: only 707 files (393Mb) were modified. My next guess was
that, for some reason, the Oracle datafiles or backuplogs where backed up
(normal Oracle backup runs through TDP as a seperate job) but when I did a
point-in-time check, no oracle datafiles were found - and there shouldn't
be, as they are excluded from regular backup in dsm.opt.

Can anyone tell me how I can check what files it actually did backup? I
really want to know what that data is...

Kind regards,

Rick Harderwijk
