I will try that but since I already had a exclude.systemobject as a client option I figured it was already excluded.

I think you can just add: DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -SYSTEMOBJECT
To your dsm.opt file.
It sounds like you want to exclude the System Object not ASR (it is the system object that includes all of the system files)
DOMAIN ALL-LOCAL -SYSTEMOBJECT will do the trick. Then when a user does a "dsmc i" tsm only backups what is in the domain statement.

We are currently implementing a "backup your laptop" service. One of our goals is that the user must be able to do everything them selfs and that we (the admins) have as less work as possible. Another goal is that it must work over slow connections since most of these users are travelling and usually on low bandwidth connections. So we decided to only backup office documents and the like. We enforce this using client option settings and that all works pretty well. Only thing is that if a users does a "dsmc i" it starts backing all these system files because of asr. Which we don't want and is pretty useless since we don't off "rebuild your laptop up to the last desktop icon" and all other program files are excluded anyway. Now we tell the users to type "dsmc i c: d: z:" but that is of course not as nice as a exclude.asr or something.

Does anybody know if it is possible to exclude the ASR with a client option set on the server? Or if it is possible to exclude it in the dsm.sys file? I have been searching a whole lot but can only find how to include it.
tsmclient 5.2.3 os: windows Xp
server 5.2.2.4
