Hi All,

I am having a backup which is failing regularly. There are no objects

You need to do the analysis on the client.  The backup log (if not
run with Quiet in effect) may indicate where in the file system the
backup was mired, depending upon how many files are deemed backup
candidates, and you can analyze from there.  Whereas this seems to be
a Windows computer, there is lots that can go wrong. ;-)  There might
be contention with other work on the client, or with a virus/security
package blocking progress, or there might be integrity or disk
problems involving the file system.  If there is reason to suspect an
integrity/disk issue, have the client owner use chkdsk or other
utility to look for errors.  If it looks like some kind of file
system access issue, you could simulate a backup run by using a
utility to fully traverse the file system, retrieving the attributes
of each file, with timestamp progress indicator, and see where it
slows down or stops.  Alternately, you could perform a full backup of
the file system and watch it to see where it has issues.  The problem
will probably be blatant, such that you should not have to perform a
TSM client trace.
