We've had a couple problems recently with TSM on AIX where the TSM server crashed, but the AIX box stayed up and green on our Netview console. But TSM was down, backups failed and we had an angry client. Is there a way we can configure SNMP in TSM for strictly availability status? As long as TSM is up, the icon is OK, but if TSM goes down/crashes, then the icon turns red and our helpdesk can wake me up.
We thought about a small Perl script to logon to TSM, and if we couldn't send a page. How do others manage this? Bill Boyer DSS, Inc.
