Hello Jim

We are a big user of the sub file feature and this explains some of our long ru
nning backups.

Any chance that TSM Client Development will increase the 2gig limit.

Also in the early doc it said that the client subfile client cache size had
a limit of 1024meg(SUBFILECACHESIZE).
Is this still the limit for SUBFILECACHESIZE? And is the SUBFILECACHESIZE
statement still required in the dsm.opt file?

Thanks len boyle
