The 4.2.1.15 client works for me on XP (Professional) in polling mode.
Is your TSM server configured to support polling?
What do dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log show from the time you started the
scheduler service?
One test you can do is to set up a test schedule for the problem node, set
SCHEDMODE to POLLING, then start the client scheduler in the foreground
via the command:
dsmc sch
Does the polling seem to work? (Assuming it does, you don't need to let
the scheduled event run to completion.)

I missed the beginning of this thread, so I apologize if this has been
answered already, but it seems related to the answer Andy gave.
I am installing TSM client 4.2.1.15 on a Windows XP machine (which had no
previous TSM client), but the scheduler does not work if
schedmode=polling. The service is started, the client is defined to the
server and associated with a schedule, but it misses it's schedule. When I
changed schedmode to prompted, I did get a backup.
Is this a known bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hi Len,
Yes, whenever you upgrade any TSM Windows client, you should stop all TSM
client services. If you do not do this, then some of the files will not be
updated "in place", and you will be prompted to reboot in order to pick up
the changes.
As to the performance problem, there are no other changes you need to make
to make it work, except, that in general, you should always avoid using
LARGECOMMBUFFERS YES on Windows

Andy

Hello Andy
I see that IP22373_15.exe is now available on the service.boulder.ibm.com
download site.
This fixtest appears to also fix the RC 4 probem and the performance
problem.
Can you tell us a little more about the performance problem fix. Are there
any changes that we might want to look at besides installing the fixtest.
PS in the readme file it says that for an uninstall of the client, one
should
stop the tsm services first. Should this also be done if doing an
upgrade.
An upgrade from 4.2?
Many thanks for this update. len
