Did you re-boot your NT client after installing the scheduler? It won't run
at all without a re-boot. Once you've re-booted the machine, check to make
certain the adsm scheduler service is still in the automatic and started
status --- it should be!

Good luck!

Subject:  ADSM Schedular Service for NT




hi.. me again..
i still have no luck in getting adsm to backup automatically an nt client
which is
running the adsm schedular service. i have started the adsm schedular
service
automatically. it starts  fine - no errors. i set the schedular service to
be run
under the local admin (system account) of the nt client. we  can run a
manual backup
from the nt client to the adsm server, and alos can run remote adsm admin
from the
client - which rules out comms problems.
my adsm server (nt also, running adsm v2.1.06) shows the nt-client backup
as
pending. but after the expiration (set to 1 hour), the server says it
missed the
backup.
what is the problem here? my adsm setup is working like a charm for our
notes and
os/2 clients, but i just cannot get the nt clients to run. due to our
techo-security-mad-dog-audit-freaks i am only permitted to run adsm on our
nt
machines as a service. the service runs, but nothing happens.
please.. please...  what am i doing wrong. have i setup the adsm client
options
incorrectly? is it an nt thing with permissions on who can run the service?
does
adsm v2.1.06 client not work properly when setting up the adsm schedular
service?
any ideas from anyone would be greatly appreciated.
shane the desparate :)
