Okay, this is beginning not to make sense to me, perhaps it's a Novell thing. As far as I'm aware with other TSM clients, if you were to direct the TSM client to archive/back up an object then it usually will (unless there's a permissions/access problem etc) - if you were to use a dynamic or shared dynamic serialization mode on the management class it would either archive/back it up after 'n' attempts or do so straight away, irrespective of whether it's a changing/open file. I re-enforce Richard's statements about whether this is a valid backup, and you'd need to test to make sure it is. /DMc -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ads...@vm.marist.edu] On Behalf Of Timothy Hughes Sent: 24 March 2010 18:44 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: Re: [ADSM-L] Archive backup set from location to another David, The changing of the management class modes, won't work the thing is We aren't backing up the real one we are backing up a copy but the archive doesn't know its a copy it thinks it is the real one. so somehow we need to tell the archive domain to back it up anyway.
