Re: TSM DB growing, but number of files remains the same ...

I heartily agree with Richard's note about using the ACCOUNTING (not the
activity) log.
We tried several things with Servergraph, and found that:
-- activity log messages are sometimes erroneous
-- summary table data is sometimes unreliable
-- frequent queries against these tables can impact the TSM server's
performance.
Servergraph uses the accounting log extensively for these reasons. Rock
solid data there,
because it's written by the TSM server, not by the client software.
