Re: Sub-File Backup - 1 GB Limit

Tim,
Actually, the subfile limit is 2 Gig; if a file size > 2 Gig then TSM will
not bother to copy the base file to the client cache, so it could not be a
candidate for subfile processing on a subsequent backup.
Thanks,

I just want to double check, does this mean that there is still the 1GB
limit for subfile backup? Ie. If a file is > 1 GB, is it ineligible for
subfile processing?
