Management here is contemplating having us move our production TSM servers to the CentOS Linux operating system, which is a free branch of Red Hat. Has anybody done this? What are the support issues with IBM? (TSM Client is already supported on CentOS via "Best effort".) Roger Deschner Univ

Think the extra "s will do it. The comma was a typo in the email, and missed the act=rest line when cutting and pasting. Funny how you stare at something time and time again but don't see the obvious. Thanks all for the extra sets of eyes. -Original Message- From: ADSM: Dist Stor Manager

Oops, apparently I forgot how to count... the last item on my list, about quoting the file specification, should be number 5. The two pairs of quotes are important, because with only one pair of quotes, the client will split the string you have into three items, where the blanks spaces occur. The

Hi Gary, 1. There should be no comma between the domain name and the schedule name. 2. You need to specify action=restore as part of the schedule definition; the default action is incremental. 3. I assume you are specifying valid date and times in the -pitdate and -pittime options. 4. You can r

Thank you. Now I need to go and fix every single one of my backup scripts. Now I am not sure why we are getting backup failures now on SQL backup (we do, maybe we are only getting missed backup??) Tom On Thu, Jan 19, 2017 at 11:01 AM, Anders Räntilä wrote: > > The only thing we have after the
