Onderwerp: [ADSM-L] What does "updated" really mean?



Server: TSM 5.1.10.0 on AIX 5.2;  client: TSM 5.1.7.0 on Windows 2003

I'm trying to understand what the client is reporting in the session
summary when it reports:
"01/23/2006 08:20:23  ANE4958I (Session: 47866, Node: ILOX-FS1)  Total
number of objects updated:    673,012"

I've checked  the product manuals, message manuals, IBM software support
site, and the forum site.

What exactly is being "updated?"

We made some changes to that server over the weekend so the presence of
the message and its non-zero count is no surprise.  But I'd still like to
understand exactly what TSM is trying to tell me.

Thanks.
