George,

You are not correct in this case. It is not a TSM API error.
Search through the archives of this mailing list
     http://search.adsm.org
for:
     0x80040bc5
to locate solutions for previous customers that
have seen this problem.

Also, you should consider upgrading Data Protection for SQL
to a version that is currently supported.

Thanks,

Del
