Over calculation of space needed for NDMP backup

When attempting to do an NDMP backup of a virtual filespace, instead of looking at the amount of data in the filespace that is being backed up, TSM looks at the entire used storage of the NAS filer to determine whether the storage pool target is large enough.

    Thank you for submitting this request. We understand the requirement and acknowledge that a solution is desirable. Unfortunately we will not be able to implement a solution as suggested in the next year or two. If after the next release of the product you would like us to reconsider, please resubmit the request. We sincerely appreciate the feedback and support in moving the product forward.
