Couldn't you just pipe the output of your Q EV EX=NO command into GREP to exclude any lines that have 'Completed' as the status? This should give you everything else included 'Started', 'Pending', 'Missed','Failed','(?)',...

There is a status of an event of '(?)' that doesn't show as an exception. This condition can occur when a backup schedule starts for a node, and then due to either the client crashing or a networking issue the connection is dropped and never re-established within the DURATION of the event. The status is '(?)'. There is an APAR open to have meaningful status's instead of the '(?)', but for now this doesn't show as an EXCEPTION. We got bit big-time at a client of our where they out-sourced the entire TSM operation to us. They were having failures, but they were not showing on our EX=YES report. They were not happy campers! I'm still having a hard time sitting! :-) We ended up writing some PERL code to parse the Q EV client events and reporting on anything that isn't COMPLETED. This behavior started somewhere in the 4.1.x patch levels. So, just be careful relying on the EX=YES to give you everything that failed.
