Sorry folks, for the last sentence below that sort of trails off at the

This is true only if the schedule definition launches a script, i.e. DEF
SCH mydomain myschedule ACTION=COMMAND OBJECTS="myscript", and the script
contains commands that run asynchronously; in that case, TSM has no way to
track the actions taken within the script. It can only say, "the script
was launched successfully". In short, the success or failure of the
command depends on the return code issued from the script.

For scheduled TSM operations (i.e. ACTION=INCREMENTAL), you should not
have any problems determining success or failure of the operation. For
ACTION=COMMAND operations where the command

We also used "query event * * begindate=today-1 enddate=today ex=yes"

check whether schedules were processed successfully."

I will not go into a rant about this, just learn from my mistake, query
event will NOT tell you if your backup was successful.

What are some good ways to get an automated daily report on which clients
were or were no backed up successfully?

TIA,
