I would like to have Andy confirm this, but I believe that in order to back
up the system state data from a Windows 2003 client, you must be connected
to a TSM 5.2.0 or higher server.

What happens if you run a backup of all the filespaces except the
systemstate data? Does that work correctly without errors?

I ran a full backup of a Win2003 server last night with the 5.2.0.2 client.
The event shows as failed, but the backup actually backed up nothing. Here's
the stats:

Looking at the 5.2 client manual, it says that to backup the "system
Services" I need a TSM 5.2 server?!??!!? Does that mean I can't back up a
Win2003 server unless I'm at 5.2 all the way around? This is an AIX4.3
server so I can't upgrade it to TSM 5.2.
