The images that have got failures are 4k in size:
-rw-r----- 1 itest db2tadm 295804928 Nov 05 16:49
TEST.0.itest.DBPART002.20150929060717.001
-rw-r----- 1 itest db2tadm 4096 Nov 05 16:49
TEST.0.itest.DBPART002.20150929060717.002
-rw-r----- 1 itest db2tadm 4096 Nov 05 16:49
TEST.0.itest.DBPART002.20150929060717.003
The reason for this size is that when backing up a database
with multiple sessions, some sessions are "hard" workers and
back up majority of data, some sessions are "lazy" workers and
might not have a chance to back up any data. For each backup
image, 4K in space will be reserved for the media header. These
are valid images. |

Run db2adutl verify and confirm the images are fine.
Add up the size of the image files in bytes. This should match
