Ameerul,
How about this?
Set up your backup schedule to run *every* Sunday and set its expiry date to a
date in the past, say 01/01/2004
Schedule this admin script to run every Sunday, at some time before your backup
schedule is to run. (assuming you use prompted mode)
===============
upd schedule mydomain myschedule expiry=01/01/2004
select server_name from status where daysinmonth(current date) - day(current
date) < 7
and dayofweek(current date) = 1
if (rc_ok) upd schedule mydomain myschedule expiry=NEVER
===============

HI All,
How do you handle a request to do backup on last
Sunday of each month. This backup (or rather archive)
is to be kept for a year. How can we accommodate this
in TSM (schedule)? One guy is comparing with Veritas
which he claims can do it.
If TSM schedule can't handle it, anyone has done it
anyway thru script or whatever? Please! Maybe i didn't
see the solution here but you guys do.
The request came from the management for their
business policy.
Thanks and best regards
Ameerul Madzali
