We do this (for another TDP) with two different schedules. One is starting a DOS batch script for full backups and the other is doing incremental backups. The commands you specified in the objects line are specified in the batch scripts. The full name (pathname + filename) is specified in the objects line and the type of schedule is not incremental but command.
Hope this helps, Michel Engels TSM Consultant Devoteam Belgium Mark Bertrand <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 01/18/2002 02:52:18 PM Please respond to "ADSM: Dist Stor Manager" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: (bcc: Michel Engels/BE/Devoteam) Subject: Schedule Question Hi All, I'll try to keep this short... In setting up a schedule for a TDP exchange database backup in TSM, if I select the action to be INCREMENTAL but my Objects line launches my .cmd script which reads: start /B tdpexcc backup * full /tsmoptfile=dsm.opt /logfile=excsch.log > excfull.log Which takes precedence? and if it is the cmd script how do I actually do an incremental, do I put "start /B tdpexcc backup * incr" or something like this. Also, is it advisable and possible to run daily incrementals and weekly fulls of my databases? Thanks again to all, this discussion group has been a very educational tool. Mark
