I am facing the same problem on Windows 2012 with TSM Client 7.1, but I
couldn't explain this. Maybe rest of objects is coming from SYSTEMSTATE?

Subject: [ADSM-L] JBB backed-up > inspected
Our TSM servers are on RHEL6, and run server version 6.3.4. They have 128 GB
RAM available.
We have two Windows 2012 R2 servers running the 6.4.0.0 client. They both run
DFS-R, replicating data from two corresponding servers at our offsite data
center. The two servers have recently been setup to use Journal Based Backups.
The two servers at the offsite data center are not using JBB, but if it is
successfull on the local two servers the plan is to implement JBB on the
offsite servers also.
The incremental backups of the two WIndows servers had been running unusually
long. Six to eight hours, sometimes much more, while scanning only 3 1/2
million files. And, they backup only a few hundred files. Both have 4 GB of
RAM. They are virtual machines on ESX. The new elapsed times have been 4
minutes, 16 minutes, etc. So run times are greatly improved.
Here's my question: both Windows servers are backing up more objects than they
are inspecting! For example: objects inspected 2,840, objects backed up:
4,101, objects expired: 707. What does that mean?
Could it be that several new files were created after the start of the backup,
so they were backed up immediatly, without entries being made in the journal?
If that's the scenario, the journal contained 2840 entries for new/updated
objects, maybe 707 entries for deleted ojects, and 1,261 objects were added or
updated after the start of the backup.
I have no previous JBB experience, so I'm just guessing at what's happening. If
someone has seen that behavior before, and has a good understanding of the
cause I would be grateful to hear from you.
With my thanks and best wishes,
