Gerrit,

Looks like you are attempting to backup the Windows NT Registry.

The Registry files are always open and hence in use by the operating system.

Specify backupreg yes in the dsm.opt. This will automatically dump the
registry contents to c:\adsm.sys\ where it will be backed up as a static
file.

Backupreg   YES

I also suggest adding an exclude statement to the dsm.opt file to exclude
c:\winnt\system32\config\* from backups.

Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\*.*
Exclude *:\...\SYSTEM32\CONFIG\...\*

        Subject:        ADSM - NT Files not being backed up

        Hi,

        I am not familiar with ADSM Cleint on NT.  There is a lot of files
that
        are not being backed up as access is denied on these files.  Is
there a
        way to back these files up:
