Hi Guys,

TSM client 5.2.2.4 - W2K3 standard edition
TSM Server 5.2.4.5 - W2K sp4

For the last few days this client has been closing abruptly and not
reporting the final session stats to the dsmsched.log, resulting in the
owners quizzing me as to why. Here are two days of it failing from the
dsmsched.log

The gaps in the time represent the TSM service falling over, which
happened both times the backup stopped abruptly. Well, it appears to
stop abruptly, it may well complete the backup as I have some stats sent
over to the server:

What concerns me is that there is no report of the Schedule INCR_NT
completing, and the event list reports the backups from two days ago as
'In Progress'.

Has anybody else seen this and is there anything I can do to repair the
seemingly broken backup?

Many Thanks,
Matthew
