A few diagnostic questions.
- You said the files are backed up individually (dsmc backup file1) Are
there ever any backups that happen with wildcards or any normal
incremental that happens on the file system?
- Is this directory included in the domain (opt file)?
- Is there an include/exclude file configured?
- could you provide an output of a "dsmc q inclexcl" (maybe the dsm.sys
and dsm.opt while you're at it.
Regards,
Shawn

[ADSM-L] TSM backup marked inactive
Here is the situation:
AIX 5.3
TSM 5.2
To a certain directory files are added daily and backed up (manual
selective full backup: dsmc backup file1)
A given file will never be backed up again
All files in this directory are kept on disk indefinitely
Each file has one and only one full backup in TSM
It has been my undestanding that as long as file is on disk, it will emain
active in TSM
However, we are seeing that every day files backed up yesterday are marked
inactive in TSM
Here is what it looks like
=> dsmc q ba -ina /D01/user01/REG15/SECT57/
