Kevin, I've created a script to append 'date' output to the log file every 30 minutes to see how long it takes sessions to reconnect to the TSM server. It's not exact but shows a time range during which events occurred.

For our Windows clients, we use the default action of Incremental for our backup schedules, and so everything gets logged to the dsmsched.log file. There is a date / timestamp on each line. For our Unix clients, we use a command action which calls a script that executes a few things along with a "dsmc incr -verbose", and redirects the output to a unique log file each day. There is not a date / timestamp on each line using this method. My question is this... Is there another option that can be passed to the dsmc incr command that will log the date / timestamp on each line? Our internal audit department is wanting to set up some monitoring processes to know exactly what time particular files are examined for backup. We can do it on our Windows clients, but not on our Unix clients under their current setup.
