I didn't see you mention which version of netware server you are
running on. Remember, SERVERSPECIFICINFO is supported by
TSA400 and up only. Not on any 3.X NW server.

Fine, but how to backup Server Specific Info ?

I thought it's backup up as part of files space directory: but when I run
"load dsmc res serverspecficinfo "
I get the following error :

"ANS4972E Unable to connect to NetWare target service 'SERVERSPECIFCINFO'.
Make sure the TSA NLM is loaded on the specified machine.

Total number of objects restored:         0
Total number of bytes transferred:        0
Total failures:                           0
Elapsed processing time:            0:00:01"

The files aren't created either in sys:system\{server-name}

Any ideas ????

This is how it works with NW4.11:

load sys:adsm\dsmc res serverspecificinfo

Reply 1 ( Replace this object ) to the following message:

     --- User Action is Required ---
     File 'Server Specific Info/Server Specific Info' exists

     Select an appropriate action
       1. Replace this object
       2. Replace all objects that already exist
       3. Skip this object
       4. Skip all objects that already exist
       A. Abort this operation
     Action [1,2,3,4,A] : 1

     The files will be located in sys:system\{server-name}

Hello folks

Does anyone of you know how to backup and  restore the "Server Specific
Info" resource that's made availabel by the TSA410.NLM ?
As this is quite useful in a disaster recovery scenario where single server
are lost, I'd apprechiate any feedback :-)

P.S. In a previouse mail from Nelson Reis;  subject "Backing up NDS with
client 3.x -Reply" I found his comments:
>>Try domain all-local dir in your client dsm.opt file or domain sys: vol1:
>>serverspecificinfo.
>>
>>Cheers,
>>Nelson.

Thanks
