This is a definitely a client-centric view! From my server-centric view I think the primary benefit is the elimiation of the server processing to generate and download the whole activeset metadata. I am planning to roll out 4.2.1.15 clients on new xp machines, implementing both journalling and subfile backups at the same time, and to upgrade 500+ win2k machines to this level. These are all desktop machines, not the kind of machines so far described as the ideal candidates for journalling, but I am focusing on the server savings. (My server is tsm 4.2.1.7 on os/390 2.10). -- -------------------------- Bill Colwell C. S. Draper Lab Cambridge, Ma. [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------
