Hi Everyone, I'm trying to get a good idea of the proper way to backup a Windows 2008 server's system state with the TSM client. The TSM client is version 5.5.1.0. What statements need to be put into the dsm.opt file? Or is this supposed to be a separate process from the regular differential

Thanks Km & Ken! The way that was described is too risky we increased the retention time on the backup sets that solves the most important issue. Tim Ken Hannigan wrote: No, you cannot currently rename backup sets. That'd be a nice requirement, but it's not a feature that's currently availa

Re: Windows 2008 silent install failing w/"invalid command line argument"

2009-07-30 Thread Andrew Raibeck
A couple of things come to mind: 1. What is the extra right/closing parenthesis at the end of the command? Maybe part of the surrounding script syntax, but appears out of place in the context of the snippet. 2. Does TEMP_MSI_LOG contain blank spaces, and if so, does it have double quotes around i
