The pre and post schedule commands on NT work properly for me. I have 
several NT servers with a variety of TSM client levels and they all work 
fine. Have you checked your DSMSCHED.LOG and DSMERROR.LOG to see what is 
happening.

Also, ensure when you define the pre/post schedule commands that you tell 
TSM you want it to wait for the command to complete. If you bring up the 
client GUI there is a check box for this option. Or if you look in the DSM.OPT:

These would wait:
preschedulecmd c:\some.cmd
postschedulecmd c:\some.cmd

While these wouldn't wait:
presNchedulecmd c:\some.cmd
postNschedulecmd c:\some.cmd

Notice the "N" after the PRE/POST, this tells TSM not to wait.

I hope this helps.
