Hi Mike, 

The hiberfile.sys file should be excluded from the backup processing, even with 
no specific exclude statement in your client options file. It is part of the 
files excluded by the filesnottobackup registry key and appears with Operating 
System as source in a dsmc query inclexcl command.
Could you post the result of the command above ?
