There is no easy way to do that. Queries against the BACKUPS table will
take a *very* *long* *time* to run. Queries concerning TSM client
activities are not easy to dig out from the TSM server.

You can confirm that individual files have been backed up by running
grep against the client's dsmsched.log file; that's probably the easiest
way to do it.
