By "fully-qualify", I mean to spell out the full path to the macro. That
is, don't just use
database
as there is no implicit extension that I am aware of. You need to specify
the .mac extension as well as the path to the file. For example:
C:\TSM\server1\database.mac
or
C:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\server1\database.mac
Another "fly in the ointment": you can not schedule the MACRO command (I
had forgotten this, but just verified that it still holds true).
Here is what I think would work for you:
Make sure your database.mac file is on the TSM server machine (as opposed
to the client machine).
Run the following admin command:
define script database "C:\Program
Files\Tivoli\TSM\server1\database.mac"
Note: "database" is the name of the script, and can be whatever you want.
Note: Specify the fully-qualified/fully-spelled out file name. Put in
double double quotes if the file name contains blank spaces.
Now create an Admin schedule to issue the command:
run database
Note: "database" is the same name I used above in the DEFINE SCRIPT
command.
I think this will do the trick.

I have searched through the admin ref guide and there is no mention on how
to "Fully-Qualify" this marco. Any docs that would point this out?
Thanks
Joe

An update to my last response: I think the real problem is that you are
trying to launch a server macro from a client schedule (I didn't catch
that the first time around).
How about defining an admin schedule whose CMD parameter is configured to
run the "macro database.mac" command? You'll need to fully-qualify the
macro name, and the macro will have to exist on the server machine.

In lower versions of ADSM I have used this directory (saclient), however
there is no directory with my current version of TSM.
I will create this directory and put the macros in there to see what
happens.
Thanks

Joe,
I believe the macro have to be located in the "saclient" directory.
Try that...

Server 4.2.1.12 - Windows 2000
Client 4.2.1.20 - Windows 2000
I am having problem launching macros at the server under scheduling. I
create a schedule:
DEFINE SCHEDULE STANDARD AUTOMATION DESCRIPTION="Automated TSM"
ACTION=MACRO OBJECTS=database PRIORITY=3 STARTDATE=03/12/02
STARTTIME=10:40:00 DURATION=15 DURUNITS=MINUTES PERIOD=1 PERUNITS=DAYS
DAYOFWEEK=WEEKDAY EXPIRATION=NEVER
I associate the schedule to CLIENT (the server) and I watch it launch in
the events (q ev * *). When the event launches it gives me an error in the
actlog:
03/12/2002 10:40:50 ANR0406I Session 1989 started for node CLIENT (WinNT)
(Tcp/Ip 172.16.8.35(3352)).
03/12/2002 10:40:50 ANR0484W Session 1989 for node CLIENT (WinNT)
terminated - protocol violation detected.
Here is my marco (database.mac) that is located in the BACLIENT directory:
select process form processes where process='backup storage pool'
if (rc_notfound) goto database
goto resced
exit
database:
issue message i "Copying of ONSITE tapes to OFFSITE tapes is
COMPLETE...will now start FULL Database backup"
BACKUP DB DEVC=DLT TYPE=FULL
/* delete schedule and add new one to reflect next script */
exit
RESCED:
issue message i "Copying of ONSITE tapes to OFFSITE tapes is not
complete...will recheck in 15 minutes"
/* will update schedule to check in 15 minutes */
exit
