I am aware of the potential problem you raise below which is why I
scheduled it to start running at 6 am on Saturday morning as activity on
the TSM server during the day on Saturday is minimal.

I discovered this large file from the output of the "q pr" command. The
file was either being moved as part of a migration or reclaimation
process. I have seen it appear on a number of occasions over the past
few months in these processes.

Thanks & Regards

The greater issue: Performing a Select against the Contents table is
basically suicidal: it's the worst table to query, where a query could
run for days and cripple your TSM server.  I would instead recommend
inspecting the accounting log for a session with data of that size,
and 1 or few objects.  Likewise you could scan the ANE messages in the
Activity Log, or have a look at the Summary table, for recent
sessions.  You don't say how you know about that file having been
backed up: that may lead to more concise ways to determine its origin.
