Keith, What does your include/exclude list have set ?
I'm not an NT wizard, but I believe dll(s) would fall under the system type files that I would want to exlcude, like pagefile.sys .. I exclude my Winnt <dir> and Program Files <dir> If I am not mistaken TSM will back up any file that has been accessed > (by date) -since dll(s) are called by apps their time/date/stamp changes.. For instance if I have fileA that has not changed in 2 weeks and I touch it the date will change when I do an ls -al . < TSM will back this file up @ backup time. That's my 2 cents (probably all it's worth) : = ) Keith Kwiatek <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>@VM.MARIST.EDU> on 11/21/2001 10:39:36 AM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: Subject: Does 4.2 client have to constantly back up win2000 system DLL's ? Hello, It seems the new 4.2 client backs up the win2000 system dll's constantly even though they have not changed.... any way around this? Keith
