I experience the same condition when I backup my w2k servers (files failed
to be backed up due to in use), I run 5.1.5 TSM client and 5.1.5 on AIX TSM
server. While the backup says its successful (to address Eric van Loon's
reply) there is always the concern, it this an important file to the success
of my recovery? I have abandoned using TSM to backup the system state files
for this very reason. I'm looking forward to trying 5.2 if it will indeed
address the open file issue.

Well, to be more specific, the current TSM version IS able to backup open
files. Indeed, 5.2 will offer a built-in locked file manager which will
allow you to backup LOCKED files.
Shawn Price stated: I have 9 Win2K servers running various versions of the
TSM Client that will have a status of 'Failed' because of two or three log
files. Is there something I'm missing or is this normal.
Which files is TSM skipping?
A skipped file should not result in a backup state of failed. This is a
known bug in older 4.2 level clients. Which level are you running?
Kindest regards,

It is my understanding that version 5.2 will have support for backing up
open files....

Hello all,
I was wondering if Tivoli can actually backup an open file (such as a
system log file)? I have 9 Win2K servers running various versions of the TSM
Client that will have a status of 'Failed' because of two or three log
files. Is there something I'm missing or is this normal.
BTW, the server is AIX 4.3.3 running TSM 4.2 and the clients again are Win2k
servers with either 4.x or 5.x versions of the client.
Thanks
Shawn Price
