Re: AIX backup command via TSM scheduler
Did some debugging on our backup scripts and it seems that the following lines are the culprit : stty intr '' trap stty intr '' 2 Would anyone know what is the purpose of those two lines ? ( am not familiar with scripts. The backup scripts are provided for by our IBM support ) Thanks Conko, Steven To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]cc: OM Subject: Re: AIX backup command via TSM scheduler Sent by: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED] RIST.EDU 06/07/2003 01:57 AM Please respond to ADSM: Dist Stor Manager We have an AIX server, so I dont know if the syntax is different, but we do have AIX clients. we run similar commands but dont use any quotes and dont include the -c, an entry for us is like this: su - oracle /home/oracle/scripts/backup/db_backup.sh It usually runs fine. however, there are isolated instances where it may fail with the rc=1 yet still run from the command line. in each of those cases we have had to step through the entire process with debug statements to find out what the problem is (keeping in mind that with the su -, the profile is sourced first.) usually, there ends up being some problem in the environment or a problem with double sourcing a file. i have no idea why the scheduler has problems when it runs okay from the command line. but that is what we have had to to... debug the process.

Re: AIX backup command via TSM scheduler
Have tried defining it as 'su - userid -c sh /tsmscript/backup.sh'. But still the return code is 1.
