Hi, all.
I have a customer running the 6.2.2.2 client on Windows boxes that have HP
OpenView installed.
(See APAR IC72446, http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1IC72446
.)

As the APAR says, they see a lot of dsmsched.log messages like this:
  ANS1417W Protected system state file <filename> is backed up to the drive
file space, not system state file space
And they could ignore those.  But then the backup says it fails with RC=12.

On the other hand, query filespace shows the SystemState filespace as backed
up successfully at that time.

So they don't know whether to believe the RC=12 failure, or the last-backup
date success indicator.
And they can't easily find a test case.
So, has anybody tested a SystemState restore after a similar backup
"failure"?
Or can Andy Raibeck say with authority that the SystemState restore will by
golly work, regardless of the RC=12?

Thanks for any wisdom.
