Hi Gurus !

I noticed a strange behaviour of our TSM server (v 4.1.3.0, on AIX 4.3.3) : I 
defined a client schedule loking like this 

 Policy Domain Name: SP
 Schedule Name: SERVER_MIGRATION
 Description: server move 4 og. to 1 ug.
 Action: Command
 Options:
 Objects: /home/tsm/dsmc_archive.sh
 Priority: 5
 Start Date/Time: 10.03.2002 00:00:00
 Duration: 10 Hour(s)
 Period: 1 Day(s)
 Day of Week: Saturday
 Expiration: 18.03.2002 23:59:59
Last Update by (administrator): SAX021
Last Update Date/Time: 11.03.2002 09:43:18
Managing profile:

Querying events this morning showed me this schedule as  :

Scheduled Start          Actual Start             Schedule Name     Node Name   
      Status   
--------------------     --------------------     -------------     
-------------     ---------
-------------     ---------
10.03.2002 00:00:00      10.03.2002 00:00:07      SERVER_MIGRA-     10.03.2002 
00:00:00      10.03.2002 00:00:07      SERVER_MIGRA-     PACRS170          
Completed
                                                   TION                         
               

But I found there was an error in our "/home/tsm/dsmc_archive.sh" shell script, 
that caused it to fail.
The script looks like :

dsmc archive -archmc=migartion_archive -subdir=yes -quiet -archsyml=no 
/sapmnt/T21/
dsmc archive -archmc=migration_archive -subdir=yes -quiet dsmc archive 
-archmc=migration_archive -subdir=yes -quiet -archsyml=no /usr/sap/put/
In the first line of the script, I made a typo, specifiying an In the first 
line of the script, I made a typo, specifiying an inexistant management class, 
therefore the script failed !

How is it possible that TSM returns me "completed", as this script failed ? Is 
it a bug ? Is there any way checkin the real status of the schedule, without 
logging on the node to verify dsmsched.err ?
Thanks in advance !

Arnaud
