All, I am running TSM 5.1.6.1 on AIX 5.1ML3. In the last few weeks it's started exhibiting a rather strange problem where the scheduler seems not to contact the clients to start the backup schedule.
Halting TSM and restarting it seems to fix it for a few days and then it will start again. Checking the actlog, I stop seeing 'Schedule prompter contacting...' messages. And, of course, the following day I see a whole stack of 'Missed' backups. Sometimes the prompter may contact one or two (out of about 100) systems before stopping altogether. We have 100 Nodes - 50 Unix (Solaris/Linux/AIX) and 50 NT/2000 systems. All are running file-based backups. We also have a single Notes server (NT) that's backed up using TDP. All are in prompted mode. I haven't been able to find any error messages in the TSM log. Just an absence of prompter messages like I said before. Can anyone help?
