Before trying MEMORYEFFICIENTBACKUP, I would try the 4.2.1.30 Windows 
client, which includes a fix for IC32379. IC32379 is known to cause 
"program memory exhausted" errors.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

Hi Tor,

if problem with memory overflow appears at start of backup, so I think I
know what is your problem ... I have similar one on AIX client which backs
up tons of files through NFS. Try to include parameter 
MEMORYEFFICIENBACKUP
YES into your dsm.opt file (or check this switch through client GUI Edit -
Preferences - Backup - Use less memory). TSM client tried to load all
directory structure to memory at start of backup by default. If you use
MEMORYEFFICIENBACKUP switch, client do it by simple directories. I suggest
it because of your note about large amount of files. Perhaps it helps.

Wiht best regards
Tom
