Re: TSM Operational Reporting and E-mail
Your firewall might have to be configured to allow outgoing traffic from the Microsoft Management Console (mmc.exe) to the SMTP server. Have you tried sending a test message to yourself via the MMC operational reporting email configuration tool? Also have a look at IBM article 1197619. It might help. http://www-1.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21197619 Regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.

Re: TSM Operational Reporting and E-mail
Dear Richard, i can reach my exchange server using MS Outlook and all the connection things like Ping by name and IP from this server, its just this TOR that can't find SMTP Server.

Re: TSM Operational Reporting and E-mail
You could try: Open a DOS window. Enter: nslookup > set type=MX > super.net.pk You should see something like: Server: xxx.yyy.com Address: 111.222.222.001 Non-authoritative answer: yyy.com MX preference = 10, mail exchanger = mail.yyy.com yyy.com MX preference = 20, mail exchanger = mail2.yyy.com mail.yyy.com internet address = 111.222.222.010 mail2.yyy.com internet address = 111.222.222.011 The names and addresses should match your environment. If you do not resolve any MX types, check your Network settings (DNS, etc.) From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager on behalf of Sandra Sent: Tue 9/13/2005 1:29 PM To: ADSM-L@VM.MARIST.EDU Subject: [ADSM-L] TSM Operational Reporting and E-mail Dear All, I am running TSM 5.2.3 with maintenance applied till 5.2.6 on Windows 2003 server.
