One of our Windows clients sent an 18 gigabyte system object backup last night. Results from 'query occ' commands suggest that it has been doing this for the last five nights. I ran a 'query content' command against one of the volumes holding the lastest backup and got a list of files like the following:
NIIHAU Bkup SYSTEM 5 \HEALTHPOL\TRAINING$\OFFICE OBJECT DOCUMENTS\DBN SLIDES\SCANNED\2001\JA- NUARY 2001\ NEWSLETTER2.CPT
[Some whitespace has been removed to prevent unwanted line breaks.] It would appear that large amounts of application data are being treated as part of the system object. The TSM client software is at the 5.1.5.0 level. TSM reports the OS level as WinNT 5.02. I think this is Windows 2000.
