Hello Olaf,
Yesteday I did a small test. You can do that yourself too as it takes 5
minutes. First where is the wordpad; in my case it was at 2 locations:
C:\>dir /s wordpad.exe
Datenträger in Laufwerk C: ist BLE
Datenträgernummer: 1347-1303
Verzeichnis von C:\WINNT\system32\dllcache
10.12.1999 13:00 186.640 wordpad.exe
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes
Verzeichnis von C:\Programme\Windows NT\Zubehör
10.12.1999 13:00 186.640 wordpad.exe
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes
Anzahl der angezeigten Dateien:
2 Datei(en) 373.280 Bytes
0 Verzeichnis(se), 309.641.216 Bytes frei
Let's see if SFP is working:
C:\>del C:\Programme\Windows NT\Zubehör\wordpad.exe
Das System kann den angegebenen Pfad nicht finden.
C:\>del "C:\Programme\Windows NT\Zubehör\wordpad.exe"
C:\>dir /s wordpad.exe
Datenträger in Laufwerk C: ist BLE
Datenträgernummer: 1347-1303
Verzeichnis von C:\WINNT\system32\dllcache
10.12.1999 13:00 186.640 wordpad.exe
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes
Anzahl der angezeigten Dateien:
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes
0 Verzeichnis(se), 309.825.536 Bytes frei
C:\>dir /s wordpad.exe
Datenträger in Laufwerk C: ist BLE
Datenträgernummer: 1347-1303
Verzeichnis von C:\WINNT\system32\dllcache
10.12.1999 13:00 186.640 wordpad.exe
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes
Verzeichnis von C:\Programme\Windows NT\Zubehör
10.12.1999 13:00 186.640 wordpad.exe
1 Datei(en) 186.640 Bytes

C:\>
It works. The test:
1. Crate file device and label it
2. Create a test group (make sure that it writes to file device unless you wish
to waste the tape)
3. Put the client in the group and let the client have SYSTEM savesets (STATE,
DB and FILES)
4. In backup command put "save -vvv" (without quotes)
5. From command line run "savegrp -vvv GROUPNAME > C:\Temp\mylog.log 2>&1"
(without quotes)
When backup is done (less than 5 minutes) examine the log. You will see that
wordpad has been backed up (C:\Programme\Windows NT\Zubehör\wordpad.exe) as
part of SYSTEM FILES. I believe this makes clear that there is not problem
with backup via SYSTEM FILES (and nsrinfo will show the same).
If you will repeat the restore test, try it from command line. In restore
window you will notice that you can set debug level with debug command which
ppl rarely use. I believe level 3 is more than enough here. Make sure that
your MS-DOS window has enough (big big big) history value to catch all that.
You wish here to examine if wordpad.exe has been restored as it has been backed
up.
I hope above does help and if you find that this hasn't been restored then the
issue should be examined to see why. Debug level may help here I believe. I
would suggest that you backup and restore only SYSTEM save sets for test and
thus examine and compare outputs to be 100% sure that everything is there.
Cheers, Hrvoje
