Lisa, Richard thanks!

Lisa,

I took a look at the dsm.opt file (below), How can I tell if it is using
VSS to backup system state objects?

Richard,

we use  'clientopt sets' for the include/inclexcl' I compared the
system's 'dsmc q inclexcl' with another and they are for the most part
the same.



Thanks
Tim

There is a technote about an backup errors having to do with that reg key:

So far I've found the reg query reg add routine (remote from a command prompt) 
to be straight forward-- I just run it as I am updating client code to 5.5.0.6.

thanks!

Tim -

I'll bow to anyone who is actually familiar with Windows, but my guess would be that things under 
the Repair directory should inherently be excluded by the Exclude list inherently contributed to 
TSM by Windows, as revealed in 'dsmc q inclexcl' where such entries are listed as contributed by 
"Operating System", and constitute what I believe to be called "Component Registry 
file list".  If so, this would suggest to me that something has gone wrong with the Registry 
contents on that W2000 system, ostensibly in the HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control
\BackupRestore\FilesNotToBackup registry subkey.  I would compare that system's 
'dsmc q inclexcl' with that on another W2000 system in your shop which is at 
the same SP level.
