Hi,
Our TSM clients on SharePoint servers try to do a backup of these
services:
SYSTEM SERVICES\SPSEARCH VSS WRITER
SYSTEM SERVICES\OSEARCH VSS WRITER
I tried to exclude these items in the dsm.opt file this way:
EXCLUDE.SYSTEMSERVICE "OSEARCH VSS WRITER"
EXCLUDE.SYSTEMSERVICE "PSSEARCH VSS WRITER"
This, however, does not work. Does anyone know how to exclude these
services
from backup?

When posting, please include platform info and software levels involved.
Note the client manual advisory on Exclude.Systemservice:
"This option is valid for Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista only."
which might be the issue.
Be sure to perform 'dsmc q inclexcl' after changing *clude options,
to assess validity, order, and contributing sources. Check the
dsmerror.log for any odd findings during backups.
