We have the same problem with the 3.7 and 4.1 clients. If you take note the
files are backed up every time. Whether they've been changed has no bearing. I
've restored the files to another server and they seem to be undamaged. The
Macs can read them fine.

In our case the files are Macintosh namespace files. This from Tivoli support:

I have generated an APAR IC29695 to address this.
   TSM NETWARE CLIENT 3.7 AND 4.1.1 GIVES ERROR DURING BACKUP:
   TRUNCATED WHILE READING IN SHARED STATIC MODE

The fix is not available yet. We have reverted to the 3.1 client.


BTW. Please don't post in html format. I detest having to open my email
client and browser both to read email.
