Andy:
Can you please clarify, does the 6.2 client "progressive incremental for
system state" only work on Win2K8, or does it also work on Win2K3?

Thanks!
Wanda

Microsoft's solution to "DLL-hell". You can check with Microsoft on
this,
or consult a non-authoritative source such as Wikipedia.

> ... and how to avoid its effects?

a) Hardware deduplication in your TSM server storage.

b) TSM deduplication (6.1 and up for server-side, 6.2 for client-side)

c) Progressive incremental backup of the system state's System Writer
component (TSM 6.2 client, compatible with TSM version 5.5 and 6.1
servers)

(a), (b) and (c) help reduce TSM server storage requirements.

(c) also helps reduce impact to the TSM server database.

Best regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
