By default TSM backs up system state with vss-- how you specify an alternate
"provider" in TSM-- I don't know.
I had the error you described yesterday and I thought I had fixed it. I had
updated client code and included the lvsa module in the msiexec install
statement. I had the stanza
snapshotproviderimage none
in my dsm.opt file. I thought that's what was wrong, because an identically
set up server didn't have that in it's dsm.opt file. So I removed it.
The error was still there this morning. I just ran a OS backup of the system
state and it worked fine. Further investigation needed.
I'd like to know what the difference is between these two backups.--i.e. what
is the diff between a "full, TSM backup" and an "incremental" ??

Lisa, Richard thanks!
Lisa,
I took a look at the dsm.opt file (below), How can I tell if it is
using VSS to backup system state objects?

Richard,
we use 'clientopt sets' for the include/inclexcl' I compared the
system's 'dsmc q inclexcl' with another and they are for the most part the same.

There is a technote about an backup errors having to do with
that reg key:

So far I've found the reg query reg add routine (remote from a
command prompt) to be straight forward-- I just run it as I am updating client
code to 5.5.0.6.
thanks!

Tim -
I'll bow to anyone who is actually familiar with Windows, but
my guess would be that things under the Repair directory should inherently be
excluded by the Exclude list inherently contributed to TSM by Windows, as
revealed in 'dsmc q inclexcl' where such entries are listed as contributed by
"Operating System", and constitute what I believe to be called "Component
Registry file list". If so, this would suggest to me that something has gone
wrong with the Registry contents on that W2000 system, ostensibly in the
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control
\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup registry subkey. I would
compare that system's 'dsmc q inclexcl' with that on another W2000 system in
your shop which is at the same SP level.
what little I know, Richard Sims
