Are you running the backup via the scheduler client?  If so, did you unload and
reload the dsmc NLM
after you changed the options file?  The options file is read only at startup
of the client...

Subject: Problem

        I am having a problem with 2 novell servers that keep failing when
trying to backup. I am getting this message:

ANS4116I One or more files will be stored on off-line media

Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No)



This is what I get from the log:

Connecting to a NetWare File System (UNET_FS_4).


Connected to UNET_FS_4.

Incremental backup of volume 'UNET_FS_4\BINDERY:'
Normal File-->       2,048,000 UNET_FS_4\BINDERY:/BINDERY ..... **
Unsuccessful
**
ANS4116I One or more files will be stored on off-line media

Do you wish to proceed? (Yes/No)

This same problem is happening on 2 of my servers.


Any suggestions will be most appreciated.
