Yes, it is in the Windows2003 TSM 5.2 client code. It utilizes the new shadow copy services. But you need a TSM 5.2 server to take advantage of it. From a previous post by Andy Raibeck: In addition, the Windows 2003 system state/service backups use a different transaction protocol that doesn't

Another thing that you should do is go into tsmjbbd.ini and set NotifyBufferSize to be a fairly large number. The default is 0x0010, or 1MB. That probably is not going to be large enough for your server. David McClelland [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote:Hi Guys, I've been tinkering with the TSM
