Goran,
There are many ways to perform it. I use a cmd file that is launched by
TSM schedule and TSM scheduler service. The only issue is you don't get
accurate schedule based success or failure messages.
I know some others use windows scheduler to perform the task via a cmd
file or bat file. There are also other products out there that allow
scheduling with some reporting logic, I don't use any, but I have seen
references on the adsm website.

hi all,
urgent :-)
how to automate exchange backup via TDP ?
is it enough to write an *.bat or *.cmd with commands ?
or is there a way to do it via tsm central scheduler assuming that
dsmcad is running on exchange server ?

sorry for maybe stupid question but im a unix-tsm admin and my windows
guys are looking at me rather funny :-)

thanks for any idea
