Joni, rather than explore alternatives right away, it would help if you could show us the command you are issuing and the output from the TSM server.

I was trying to create an administrative schedule to generate a backupset, but it won't let me. It states that I have an invalid parameter which is the node name of the server that I am trying to create the backupset from. Do I have to create a command script and then run the script through an administrative job? Thanks in advance! Joni
