Re: How to save volhist and devconfig

Hi,
I have had good experience in creating a TSM Administrative Schedule that
saves volhist and devcnfg to disk. Then I've made a client schedule that
sends a mail with those files (and different status messages for TSM) to
backupoperators (including an external account, in case of a complete
disaster - mailserver and TSM server are in the same location).

Brian,
   Yes, we do that.

On our windows TSM server we automatically run a batch file that
1) saves the volhist and devconfig into a local directory.
2) copies all this, and the license files to two servers at other
   locations across our network
3) generates a floppy disk with the same info on it to go out with
   the database backup tape each morning, at the same time we send
   off offsite backups.

I wanted to run it from the TSM scheduler and that was a little trickier,
but doable with some help from this list :)

Hello,

I was wondering how other administrators are saving the volhist, devconfig,
dsmserv.dsk and dsmserv.opt.

Every day we save the volhist and devconfig and manually ftp these files to
a network-drive in case of a crash of the server.

Now I'm not familiar with scripts so far, but I want to automate these job.

So, I was wondering how other administrators are doing this job.

Thanks for your reply.

Brian.
