Hi Paul,

Yes, the 5.1 clients are supported with the 4.2 servers; though the usual
caveats about most new 5.1 features requiring a 5.1 server still apply.
However, I'm fairly certain that the use of '-' to exclude system objects
(or other drives) does not require a 5.1 server.

Regards,

Andy

Can the 5.1.5 client be used with 4.2.2.12?

Starting with V5.1.5.0, you can now exclude the systemobjects from backup
-
you do not have to specifically set this in the domain. For example, if
you
had local drives C:. D:, and E: you could do an incremental backup on the
local drives, but not the windows systemobjects, by specifying

         dsmc inc -domain=-systemobject

TSM V5.1.5.0 is GA 10/11/2002.
