You cannot. TDP for Notes is (was) an application that requires licensing, and Tivoli no longer distributes licenses (or media) for it. You're going to have to use the regular b/a client. If you backup while Notes is hot, there's a chance that data will be (at best) slow to back up due to retries, or (at worst) you'll get corrupt backups. If you shut Notes down during the backup, the resultant flat files should back up just dandy with the b/a client. (You don't really want to use the TDP agent for Notes anyway. The API that Tivoli and other backup systems were given to use by Lotus was *not* made for backups and restores; as a result, the TDPN app had a very poor track record.) -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
