I can't delete the c:\adsm.sys directory as it says it's in use. But I'll check out the docs you referenced below.
The dsmerror.log says nothing useful. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Andrew Raibeck Sent: Thursday, October 13, 2005 9:05 AM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: Errors restoring the SystemObject Hi Patricia, This is a tough one. Check dsmerror.log for any other messages that coincide with the ANS1257E message. What do those say? You can try deleting the c:\adsm.sys directory, then retry the restore. Also, did you follow our recommended full system restore procedures? There is a document at http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21164812 that discusses this. Since you are using 5.1, the procedures would mirror those for Windows 2000 (system object, rather than system state); though I'm not certain that W2K+3 has been tested with the 5.1 client.
