In poking around some more, I found that the TSM Backup-Archive Clients
Install/Users Guide has the "include.archive XXXXXXXXXXXX" statement in
the normal include/exclude file.

I will try this and see if it works.

I can do manual client archives via the GUI so I know archives work.

Thanks for your trouble.

Client has been backing up normally with schedmode=polling.

I have never used archives before, so I need some help here.

I setup the archive copygroup to keep archives for 2555 days (7 years).

I created an archive schedule and thought that would be it as far as
archiving configuration goes, but I received the following error in the
client dsmsched.log:

08/15/2003 15:02:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:07:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:12:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:17:20 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:22:20 ANS1079E No file specification entered

The Message manual indicates that "You did not enter a file specification
as prompted".

Where does one enter the "file specification" for archive if the archive
is being done in a polling schedmode?

Doesn't archive just read the client dsm.opt file for the
includes/excludes and use this for the archive??

I am not using CLOPTSETs.

TIA
