Question: Why would having your laptop docked or un-docked make a difference in backup.
The only reason I have my Laptop docked is I don't want to look @ a 17" monitor or I don't want to unwind the power cord. My NIC card communicates the same way being docked or un-docked. Orin, Go to a DOS prompt and type "dsmc" Once your command line changes from <X Directory> to dsmc type "q sch" The output will say when- what - and how long until your next scheduled backup is. If you don't get that you ; A: Are not communicating with the TSM Server or B: Do not have your laptop/node associated with a backup schedule Gabriel C.
