Returncode for a TDP CMD Script
Hi, we are using a Windows cmd Script for tdp Backups. At the TSM Server the schedule is defined as: tsm: TSMA>q sched tdp sql23full_SERVER33 f=d Policy Domain Name: TDP Schedule Name: SQL23FULL_SERVER33 Description: FULL Backup SQL d...@23:00 Action: Command Options: Objects: c:\adsm32\tdpsql\sqlbackup.cmd /tdpmode:full Priority: 5 The tdpsql.exe returncode is stored in a variable %tdperror% within the script sqlbackup.cmd and used for sending an error email. The CMD Job ends with the line exit /b %tdperror% and should return the original error code to the tsm scheduler. Sometimes the backup gets an error and the error email is sent correctly. But from the tsm server sight the schedule is always successful. I don't have an idea where to look further. Instead of using exit /b I used a freeware tool errorlvl.exe to set the returncode manually - no change in behavior. Kind regards Stefan Holzwarth
Mutliple nodes one on server with scheduler
Hi, we have configured two tsm-nodes on one server (running on linux). Running manually from the commandline we can save data from both nodes. But unfortunately only one of the nodes (GPFSDATA) is running by the scheduler. The other one (ZENTGPFSN01) never starts by the scheduler - but "q sched" looks good.

Re: Returncode for a TDP CMD Script
Without seeing your script, I suspect that the command that sets the return code might be running asynchronously rather than synchronously. I suggest going to the link in my sig and searching on: diagnostics for scripts The first hit might be of use to you.

We start two dsmcad-processes by "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmcad" and "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ ba/bin/dsmcad -servername=system" It's not at all apparent in the client manual, but dsmcad recognizes and utilizes only one command line option: -OPTFILE. And dsmcad's programming has been deficient over the years such that it offers no objection to invalid or inappropriate command line options (APAR IC60863 finally addressed this). You need to follow the instructions provided in the client manual, under "Managing multiple schedule requirements on one system", where they use the DSM_CONFIG environment variable, which amounts to the same thing as -OPTFILE usage. Be sure to check your dsmwebcl.log and TSM server Activity Log for any issues encountered with using CAD. Richard Sims at busy Boston University
Re: end of support tsm 5.5 on z/os ?
Yes, zLinux rings a bell. However, if you don't already have tape and/or disk infrastructure in place for it, or if you don't have sufficient excess capacity in what you do have, you will have to purchase them, as there is no good way to share these resources between z/OS and z/Linux. And yes, I'm aware that you could carve out part of your disk from z/OS and assign it to z/Linux, but that doesn't take into account the duplicate disk you'd need on both sides of the house while migrating from one platform to another. I have expressed my displeasure in this situation to TSM product managers.

Re: delete volhistory
Sir: Note that all are series 1. You have a full and incramentals. That constitutes a series. If you wish to delete them you will have to do another full. That will invalidate the previous incramentals and full.

Re: Erro - backup of the client Linux
Is it actually backing up data though? It will scan the entire drive, and backup the directory structure, even though you have excluded it. If you are seeing that the schedlog is going into other directories, that is normal. What you have setup looks correct to me. If you don't want to scan the other directories you would need to use exclude.dir. Gary On Sep 11, 2009, at 1:05 PM, Bruno Oliveira wrote: No space.

The dsm.sys file is as follows: exclude * include /home/ifwiset /.../* When you run the command schedule the backup is done a full backup of the /. 2009/9/10 Andrew Raibeck I don't quite understand the problem being described, but a couple of things to add to what Richard said: - If you do not exclude a file or directory from backup, then it is implicitly included. If you want to include some file or directories for backup, and exclude everything else, then you need to specify something like this: exclude * include /dir1/.../* include /dir2/.../* include /home/andy/.../* - The "exclude" statement excludes file objects from backup, but directory objects are still backed up. For example: exclude /home/andy/.../* excludes all files in /home/andy, but backs up directory entries under /home/andy such as /home/andy/dir1, /home/andy/dir2, and /home/andy/temp To prevent the backup of everything in /home/andy, including directory entries, do this: exclude.dir /home/andy Best regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Product Development Level 3 Team Lead Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Hartford/i...@ibmus Internet e-mail: stor...@us.ibm.com IBM Tivoli Storage Manager support web page: http://www.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/support/IBMTivoliStorageManager.html The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.

Customizing tsm client install for windows
Tsm client v6.x. I would like to have a particular set of options added to the dsm.opt on a very large number of installs. Is there a way to automate this into the standard installer? If so, just a pointer to docs will help. Thank you all. Gary Lee Senior System Programmer Ball State University phone: 765-285-1310
Re: Customizing tsm client install for windows
Suggest you use a client option set instead and assign it to the nodes.
