You can use an immediate client action to run OS commands within a TSM
script.  You just have to setup the TSM client and scheduler, with
schedmode prompted, on your AIX system if you haven't done so already.

Here's a couple examples:

Sleep script (this script takes the number of seconds as a parameter):
define clientaction NODENAME action=command -
 objects='sleep "$1"' wait=yes
i.e. RUN SLEEP 30

Mail script (this script takes the subject of the mail as a parameter)
define clientaction NODENAME action=command  -
 objects='mail -s "$1" [EMAIL PROTECTED] </dev/null >/dev/null' wait=no
i.e. RUN MAIL "This script has started"

        Subject:        Run OS command from inside TSM script?


We run a TSM server on an AIX system. Is there a way to issue an operating
system command ie. ls, tar ... from inside a TSM script? Yes, I know I can
run a TSM script from the AIX command line, using dsmadmc ... but I have a
need to run an one or more AIX commands from inside a TSM script, if there
is a way.
