IBM Tivoli Storage Manager, Version 7.1

FMV1444E

An error occurred creating the Event Log backup directory structure

Explanation

The TSM client uses an intermediate directory structure on the client machine as part of the Windows Event Log backup process. The client was unable to create this intermediate directory structure, so the Windows Event Logs could not be backed up. This problem can occur if you do not have sufficient privileges to perform the backup operations, if the client is unable to allocate more memory from the system, or if a component within the directory structure already exists as a file.

System action

The Windows Event Logs are not backed up.

User response

Check the client error log for any other messages that might have been logged when this message was written, and take the corrective action (if any) suggested by those messages. Make sure that account under which the operation runs has sufficient privileges. Ensure that the system has sufficient memory to run TSM. Remove the ADSM.SYS directory from the root of your system drive, then try the operation again. If the problem persists, contact IBM® support for further assistance.
