Hi again Farren ! Aha ok, two nodenames?
My best guess is that TSM Cluster Scheduler is only backing up the OS. And TSM Exchange TDP Scheduler is responsible for Exchange backups. What I do is to use two TSM nodes and two scheduler services on Exchange servers like you seem to have. But I only have TSM Exchange TDP Scheduler defined as a cluster resource. OS backup is not a part of the cluster and should be defined per host, which requires two nodenames.

The reason I'm confused about the 'cluster scheduler' is that we also have a 'TSM Exchange TDP Scheduler' running, and I assumed it was this that was responsible for the backups? Why the need for the two separate schedulers? Thanks again.

This prevents the whole cluster to failover when the TSM service stops due to whatever.. ex. bad password. Verify that the correct registry parameter is replicated as a part of the cluster resource: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM\ADSM\CurrentVersion\Nodes\ <nodename>\<TSM server instance name> Consider to set passexp=0 on the TSM server for the Exchange node. Update PW on both cluster nodes. "what does the Cluster Scheduler actually do?" Backing up Exchange? :-) You will find the answer if you search on the nodename and schedule in TSM. //Henrik -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Minns, Farren - Chichester Sent: den 1 juli 2008 11:31 To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM Cluster Scheduler Question Hi All TSM 5.4.1.2 on Solaris 2.9 Backing up Exchange (MS Windows Server 2003, RC2 SP") - 5.5.0.0 in a clustered environment. We had this set up by an outside company and are now seeing some problems with the TSM Cluster Scheduler automatically failing over the cluster due to a password issue (this is as far as I can see anyway). So, the dumb question, what does the Cluster Scheduler actually do? I can see there is a separate schedule for the Exchange TDP backups.
