Hi Geoff, As the tsm has difficulties backing up open files such as .mdf database files, you can use TDP agent for MSQL to get around to this issue. Regards, Dinesh

Sent: Thu 8/16/2007 6:35 PM To: ADSM ([email protected]) Subject: open Access files Hello again all, I was wondering if anyone can tell me how they deal with Microsoft Access (.mdb) files. If these files remain in an open state when the backup runs are there any issues? Will they get backed up? Will they be in a usable state when restored if they do get backed up while open? We know from past experience open Oracle files are not, which is why tools are available to back these up, but I'd like to hear from anyone who has experience the .mdb's. Thanks for the help.
