Hi TSM'ers, I am trying to do backups with the TSM Client, 6.2.2.0, running on AIX 5.3, TL11 against a TSM Server 5.5.6.0
The backup itselfs works ok, but i face difficulties defining and running a preschedulecmd. Some diagnosis below: root@tsm-client:/var/log/tsm> dsmc q sched IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Command Line Backup-Archive Client Interface Client Version 6, Release 2, Level 2.0 Client date/time: 05/11/2012 14:35:17 (c) Copyright by IBM Corporation and other(s) 1990, 2010.

Return code = 12. 05/11/2012 01:30:57 Sending results for scheduled event 'CSCH_PPZ_SC3_ORA_INC'. I have fiddled a bit with " and ' in the Options definition, but to no success. It seems that the operating system (or ksh to be exact) always gets the command with leading ", so it cant' be executed. Any solution to this other than upgrading to server 6.x ? regards Günther -- Guenther Bergmann, Am Kreuzacker 10, 63150 Heusenstamm, Germany Guenther_Bergmann at gbergmann dot de
