----------------------------
a long-Term idea:
sub-file backup is currently not an option since it would not support files
of that size.
Your file changes daily.
I_f the portion changed is not big,
a_n_d your server would be able of computing a diff
(both CPU and avalable free disk space would suffice)
you could place an official requirement to IBM to enlarge the sub-file
limitations.
There was a mail exchange about similar problem earlier on this forum,
and one TSM programmer responded that opening the limits would not be
a very big deal <usual dislaimers apply>
----------------------------
Otherwise, see Zlatko´s mail, tape single media size is of little concern,
speed is.
