Michael,

Check and see whether there is sufficient space on the C Drive to allow the
registry to be backed up. 

The registry is contained within c:\winnt\system32\config . Check the size
of this directory. If say it's 40Meg in size and you don't have 40Meg
available on your C drive then this is the problem.

Check and see whether you can manually save the registy using the NT Reskit
command regback.

If it were a rights issue ADSM would have told you.

If you still can't manually backup the registry then suspect a problem with
the registry itself. Sometimes a reboot can clear this up.

Nathan

                I am trying to backup an NT 4 client with ADSM (AIX) version
3.1.2.0. The schedule starts

            then receive error: An Error occurred saving the key   Registry
backup function failed. 
            Could this be a rights issue, or do I have another problem.
