Hi,

I've tried to solve this issue before without luck. I'm trying to make a backup 
with encryption on a new node/client. The node is registered on the server, and 
the first login from the node (using dsmc and a simple dsm.opt file only 
specifying the nodename, passwordgenerate and the server) has been made (where 
it asks for nodename and password). Then I quit dsmc again.

My first backup dsm.opt file (with encryption) 

NODENAME TSM-MYTEST1
PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE
TCPSERVERADDRESS 172.16.7.136
DOMAIN D:
schedlogretention 15
DateFormat 2 
COMPRESSION ON
Encryptkey Save
EXCLUDE *
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Network Trash Folder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\TheFindByContentFolder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\ThevolumeSettingsFolder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Temporary Items\...\*"
INCLUDE.Encrypt "D:\BilledArkiv\...\*" 
INCLUDE.Encrypt "D:\Bogholder\...\*" 

I assume, that I have to set EncryptKey to SAVE - otherwise the scheduler won't 
be able to make backups. 
A backup using these options and running "dsmc i" gives this result:

Total number of objects inspected: 149,290
Total number of objects backed up: 25,189
Total number of objects updated: 0
Total number of objects rebound: 0
Total number of objects deleted: 0
Total number of objects expired: 0
Total number of objects failed: 0
Total number of bytes transferred: 8.40 MB
Data transfer time: 0.49 sec
Network data transfer rate: 17,247.31 KB/sec
Aggregate data transfer rate: 21.27 KB/sec
Objects compressed by: 0%
Elapsed processing time: 00:06:44 

If I then change dsm.opt to the options below (thereby removing encryption): 

NODENAME TSM-MYTEST1
PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE
TCPSERVERADDRESS 172.16.7.136
DOMAIN D:
schedlogretention 15
DateFormat 2 
COMPRESSION ON 
EXCLUDE * 
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Network Trash Folder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\TheFindByContentFolder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\ThevolumeSettingsFolder\...\*"
EXCLUDE.DIR "D:\BilledArkiv\Temporary Items\...\*"
INCLUDE "D:\BilledArkiv\...\*" 
INCLUDE "D:\Bogholder\...\*" 

And delete the old data in my TSM Server (using "del filespace") - and then 
makes a new backup using "dsmc i" - the the result is:

Total number of objects inspected: 149,290
Total number of objects backed up: 144,088
Total number of objects updated: 0
Total number of objects rebound: 0
Total number of objects deleted: 0
Total number of objects expired: 0
Total number of objects failed: 0
Total number of bytes transferred: 87.28 GB
Data transfer time: 1,394.87 sec
Network data transfer rate: 65,618.49 KB/sec
Aggregate data transfer rate: 5,848.74 KB/sec
Objects compressed by: 11%
Elapsed processing time: 04:20:49 

What is going wrong ?? The TSM server is running 5.2.2.3, and the client is 
5.2.0.6 ...

Regards,
