The MC isn't the issue.  It is the assignment of it.  I went to the client
and brought up a restore window to see what MC was applied / bound to files
backed up (as well as rebound when it was changed).

It is properly "rebinding" when I changed it so it is working - just not
producing the results I want when it comes to what objects it is applying
to.

I haven't looked at it since the changes yesterday.  Will see if the owner
can get me onto the box so I can see what MC has been applied to
what.,,,,unless there is a way I can see this info from the TSM server side?
