LIST mechanism with a callback that invokes a script that just takes all of the files output and pulls the file names out of them for rsync to our TSM server. The hourly searches the most recent filesets, and there is a daily that catches anything that might
have been missed.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><font size="2" color="#1f497d" face="Calibri"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">The callback script is pretty simple, it just parses out the file name field from the index output results that
come from the policy execution and sorts them and renames them to new files, then a multi-threaded worker backup process (we call it backupd) scans the directory for more things to do and invokes rsync –files-from to get the file list.

I was just about to put some effort into improving some local code we've been running for a long time that was based on gpfs 3.2 samples and is not parallel.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

<font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Perhaps you can use mmapplypolicy which has a parallel file scan and parallel execute whatever script you like against the files found capabilities to "drive" your backups.</span></font><br>
<font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">That is what the IBM supported mmbackup does. mmbackup is supported for use with IBM/Tivoli TSM. Of course IBM would like you to buy TSM, but you are free to "mashup"
mmapplypolicy with any other software you choose.</span></font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="Arial"><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">Also we recently shipped an improved version of samples/ilm/mmfind that makes it easy to exploit parallel find and execute without sweating the details of mmapplypolicy
and its peculiar policy SQL/rules.<br>
