Postpone multiple TSM schedules at once??

[dpomatto]

Hey....is there an easy way to postpone all TSM schedules for a few days? I really don't want to modify about 120 TSM schedules manually. I'd love to be able to do this at the command prompt.

Thanks!!

Hi,

you can issue "disable sessions client" command - it prevents all client sessions (both sheduled and interactive).
OR you can use option DISABLESCHEDS YES in your dsmserv.opt - it disables central scheduler - so no client or administrative schedule is run.
For this option you have to restart the TSM server.

Hope it helps

Assuming all schedules are active

for Unix

id=USERNAME
pass=PASSWORD
tsmCmd="dsmadmc -id=$id -pass=$pass -comma -dataonly=yes"

schedules=$`$tsmCmd "select domain_name,schedule_name from client_schedules"
RC=$?
if [[ $RC -ne 0 ]]
then
echo "error updating schedules\nReturn Code $RC ]]
return $RC;
fi
for each in $schedules
do
domain=`echo $each |awk -F, '{print $1}'`
sched=`echo $each |awk -F, '{print $2}'`
$tsmCmd "update schedule $domain $sched startd=2010/01/01
done

May not work as I have not tested, so you might want to try with an echo first in the line above "done". If you need for windows yell out.

to reset them at the end, change the startd to something different.

This so far is just for client schedules as well

I use Harry's idea. I keep the line DISABLESCHEDS YES commented out in my dsmserv.opt. Then, I only have to remove the comment when needed.
