Hello TSMers

I wonder if you can help with this one.

TSM server 3.7.3.8 running on Solaris 2.7 box.
TSM client 4.1.0.0 running on windows NT.

The problem occurred a week or so back when the clocks went forward one
hour. We have 28 assorted clients running Windows NT, OS/2 and Solaris and
all but one were completely unaffected by the clock change. The one that
was effected (one NT client version 4.1.0.0 ) decided that as far as it was
concerned, every singe file on the machine had changed (all 80Gb worth!).
As a result, we ended up with a backup that took a few days to complete and
added a whole bunch of unnecessary files to our database.

Has anyone else seen this? Can anyone shed any light as to why on earth the
client could get so confused?

Thanks very much

All the best
