Robert,
 
On Windows servers, the OFS does not work when you start the BA client on the 
server itself. But if the backup is scheduled or the Web GUI is used, the OFS 
does work. So see if this is the case with your XP client too.
 
But in general, I don't like the OFS too much. It crashed for instance a Domino 
server although the Notes databases were excluded from the FS backup.
 
The VSS on Windows 2003 is working better together with the OFS.
 
best regards,
Kurt

Hi

How  can I check if my "Open files Support" was correctly install , which 
service did this feature load ...... I tried another approch and try to backup 
my ntuser.dat and this time get another error as  :

08:34:58 ANS4987E Error processing '\\cc37206-2345\c$\Documents and 
Settings\Sas\NTUSER.DAT': the object is in use by another process

My guess is that my "open files support" is not install correctly !!!!

Regards Robert



Hi to all

I installed "Open File Support" on my WindowsXP client 5.3.2.0 , reboot the 
machine but still when trying to backup my pst file (Outlook file) I got this 
error message "access denied"

Did I need something in my dsm.opt , I am logon in the machine as an 
administrator . After installing the "Open File Support" wizard which service 
did it install ????

By the way I check this feature when I installed the client ...

My server is Windows 2003 tsm version 5.2.4.0
