What I use is a little refresh script on my workstation which executes a netsvc
stop/start on the different clients. My script is written for one server only
but can easily be extended for all your clients. A little "q node" which lists
all you known clients to a file and than execute the refresh script for all
these servers. The thing you need to all the clients is the rights to execute a
stop/start of a service.

The solution Alex and Juergen gave is not bad but the problem is that it only
will be executed the next time the client contacts the server which is the
"queryschedperiod" or less. For some clients this may be too late and when there
are network problems contacting the server (for example when the client has two
cards and the card which communicates with TSM has problems) sometimes the
"netsvc" method is more accurate.

Hope this helps,

Subject:  Stop/Restart Scheduler on NT Client



Sir/Madam,

Can someone tell me how to stop/restart the backup scheduler on a massive NT
clients from the server? I had more 200 clients and I updated my client
option on the server. In order for it to take effect, I have to stop and
restart the scheduler on clients. Server and clients are both running on
version 3.7.3. Is there a script I can create to do it this? Or perhaps on
the GUI windows?

Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
