Eric - The Ref Manual, in talking of "multiple objects", is talking about encoding multiple file names which may contain blanks, which thus need to be stored in the server as double-quoted constructs. That's different from what you seek to do: you have just the command string. You want to enter: def sched domain schedule_name action=command starttime=18:00 objects="/dir/script >/dir/log 2>&1" Note the removal of a space from around the redirect, which prevents TSM from recognizing it as a redirect for it, but allowing it to be a Unix redirect.
