Hi -
        I am new to ADSM and trying to archive about 70 GB using "archive
-subdir=yes /*" command and it keeps failing after about 460 mb.  I get the
the
following error and am looking for answers:

05/12/99   14:11:08 ANS1803E Archive processing of '/*' finished with
failures.

05/12/99   14:11:08 ANS1512E Scheduled event 'B9000_ARCHIVE' failed.  Return
code = 4.

I'm not sure where to go for answers and would appreciate any help.  Thanks
in advance.  The guy who use to support this has quit and I know very little
about ADSM, so please speak in plain english so I can understand.  Thanks
again.
