Hi folks,

TSM Server 5.1.1.6 (was 4.1.1 but behavior is the same) (on AIX 4.3.3)
TSM Windows Client 5.1.1.5 (was 4.2.1 but behavior is the same)
Windows W2K SP2

My problem is that the W2K clients are always backing up a whack of .exe's and 
.dll's. The reason that it is backing them up is that the modified date/time 
keeps getting updated. Interestingly enough, the time seems to be when the TSM 
schedule starts! These files are obviously not changing.

The other thing is it seems to be backing up the files as system objects and 
not files. If I run 'dsmc inc c:', it backs up about 10mb. If I run 'dsmc inc' 
it backs up around 800mb.

Any ideas?

Miles
