Re: Rationalise policy domains
John, if you set the "Query Schedule Period" to a low number, say 4 hours, you will be able to change the domain and schedule and avoid having the client schedule obtain a schedule which you then delete. In the admin ref, see the set command for query schedule period and try to find some guidance on it in the admin guide. I haven't done this but I think it will work.

Re: Rationalise policy domains
John, My understanding is that if you are using the managedservices (or cadmode depending on client version) option for scheduling then changes in schedules are picked up by the dsmcad and restarts are no longer required. If, on the other hand you are just using the scheduler service then restarts probably are required.

Re: Rationalise policy domains
We are running 1 domain per node. At first I thought this would be an administrative nightmare, but it really isn't. It also makes changes and exceptions easier because you know that when you change any settings in the domain you are affecting just one node. I actually like running this way. Just my 2 cents. Cory >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 08/28/02 03:56AM >>> John, I too had many domains. One for each client os and eveing application, Oracle exchange SAP. It was a nightmare with copy groups. After much thought and consultation with Tivoli I have rationalized it to two domains. The process was slow in that we moved so many clients a day, and had to restart the scheduler. One domain is for application servers, or systems less than 30GB storage, without collocation in it's storage pool. Another inessence is for database servers such as Oracle, Exchange and SAP and also NAS with collocation andit's own storage pool. I have also set up pool NAS_TAPE that collates on filespace for both NFS and CIFS. We also have a pool for disaster recovery. I have set up schedules to start at various times during the evening and spread the clients across those, e.g client_2000 starting at 20:00. It'll be a lot of work but it makes it so much easier. This was not completed on the original node as we moved to a new service, but I got the comfort factor seeing how it worked.
