Yes, Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. TSM client installed, but two Services created using the 'setup wizard' from the gui, one for the normal BAC and one for what we call SQL Cluster.

The node backup is configured to skip the live DB, only backing up the output created by the SQL Maint plan. Granted, not "live", but acceptable for our DBs. -----Original Message----- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [mailto:ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU] On Behalf Of David Ehresman Sent: Wednesday, January 14, 2015 2:30 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM Scheduled SQL Backups Has anyone done TSM Server Scheduling of SQL backups where there are multiple SQL databases on a single server, each using a unique TSM node name for backups? Any hints? I'm a TSM server admin but know next to nothing about SQL or TSM for SQL.
