Yes, I would be interested. If you can be bothered, please send me a copy
of the answer. But my experience with Tivoli support is that this will take
time, so I won't hold my breath. Good luck.
With regard to your comment:
> In general it seems I have to ask them what's more important
for us there is no question about it. We *have* to clear the disk log areas
to TSM, otherwise Domino (or SAP, or Oracle) just stops. And with our
largest Domino backup taking 30 hours (1+ TB), we *cannot* afford so long a
stop in the scheduler.
Another good reason to put the jobs in the background is to get them to run
in parallel. The TSM scheduler only does 1 backup at a time, but we run
many Domino partitions, and have lots of tape drives. It's much more
efficient to run several backups in parallel (we do up to 8 at a time). In
fact, in our installation we cannot get through the night's backups without
running in parallel.
Another solution is to put some of the schedule jobs into crontab, but it's
much easier to keep an overview if all jobs are in the TSM scheduler, and
you still lose the return code to TSM.
But as I said, we run scripts and do the return code checking ourselves.
It's the only way to go for us.
