Hi all,

I have some strange behaviour on my Windows ME client (TSM v. 4.2.1.0). If I 
use the daily incremental backup to backup the registry, I got the following 
result:

Incremental backup of volume '\\WME\C$'

I wonder why TSM is building the c:\adsm95.sys directory!!!!! Regarding the 
manual this should be adsm98.sys!!??!!?? The next problem is of course the 
restore. Trying to restore the registry (commando: "restore registry entire")
will result with the following:

Node Name: WINDOWSME
Session established with server TSM: AIX-RS/6000
  Server Version 4, Release 2, Level 1.0
  Server date/time: 01/29/2002 13:21:55  Last access: 01/29/2002 13:17:19

ANS1302E No objects on server match query


This means that a restore of the registry isn´t possible!!!!!!!!!!
And the funniest thing is, that TSM is building under the restore procedure a 
new (empty) directory called adsm98.sys with 2 other underdirectories (registry 
and registry.sav). The adsm95.sys directory contens only the registry folder. 
I tried to rename the adsm95.sys to adsm98.sys and start restore again. Didn´t 
work!
Does anybody know if there is an APAR on this? Or can anybody give me some 
hints how to solve this problem??

TIA
