Hi Andy

I checked it and the file vnetinst.dll  did not exist on the server , I have 
another server with the same configuration (Windows 2008 and Tsm client 
6.1.0.2) the systemstate backup is running correctly and there too the file 
vnetinst.dll did not exist !!!

On the server with the error I erased old backup of systemstate and made a new 
fresh backup systemstate and got the same error !!! By the way the backup of 
systemstate with TSM client 6.1.0.2  is much bigger then old TSM version (old 
one around 600MB and now aroud 11GB  ????) I opened a PMR at IBM

Regards  Robert

Robert,

Microsoft defines system state as being "a collection of several key
operating system elements and their files". Microsoft does not support
restoring a subset of system state. TSM has been implemented to follow
Microsoft guidelines in this regard. Thus if a system state file cannot be
found, it is not possible to make a good system state backup, and therefore
the system state backup stops.

Does the file named in the ANS5279E message, vnetinst.dll, exist? If not,
that is why the system state backup stopped. You need to start with an
investigation of why this file does not exist, yet the Windows system files
writer seems to think it exists. This might be a question for Microsoft. If
the file exists, but the backup continues to think it does not exist, then
please open a PMR with IBM TSM support.

Best 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.
