Configured the journal service with a larger notify buffer, but we just can't 
get the first incremental to complete.  We see in the server activity log that 
the session was terminated by the client. Running in managed services mode.

Any suggestions on backup strategies on this large of a server?

I have a client in the same boat, and the only thing I could think of
was to upgrade to 64bit hardware so the 4 million file limit would get
bumped up.

This is what Tivoli pointed me towards when I asked the same question.
The same concept applies to backups.

This is a restriction due to the nature of a 32bit client. The client
cannot get more memory and is aborting. The client needs around 1KB for
each file in memory. A 32bit client can only address 4GB of memory, this
will be sufficient for 4 million files.
