Hello All,

On one client backups I get the following msg:-

ANS1802E  Incremental backup of   '\\fs2\f$'   finished with 50 failure.

Preceding this msg. I get  a ANS1228E &  a ANS4037E for each "File
skipped".

I checked these "File skipped" and they are all subdirectories rather than
application files.

I am trying to understand why I am getting these msgs. ?

Copy serialization is SHRSTATIC,  and  I am using OPen File Support on the
F drive.

ITSM Server 5.2.2.0 for Windows(WK3)
Backup/Archive Client 5.2.2.0 (WK2)
