APAR IC41440. Another alternative recommended by tivoli support was to
backlevel the client to version 5.2.4.0

David, do you happen to know to which APAR you are referring, or do you
have a PMR on this?

The closest match I know of is IC46809, but that describes the opposite
problem you mention: that when you DO use dynamic serialization, the
system state or system object backups are no good. But DYNAMIC and
SHRDYNAMIC should only be used on an exception basis, when you know that
the application that uses the files can tolerate a restored file that came
from a fuzzy backup.

Regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
