Re: Another backup set question

Timothy,

Try to use exactly the same syntax as the one used by the GUI :

GENERATE  BACKUPSET DOCAPPS "weekly docapp" 5 DEVCLASS=3592CLASS
NAMETYPE=FSID DESCRIPTION="weekly docapparch" RETENTION=1 WAIT=YES

Note the use of "5" and "NAMETYPE=FSID" : in that case you're working
with FSID to tell TSM which filespace to use 

If you'd like to use the full filespace name, it should be
\\DOCAPPS\POA.
Do yourself a favor and type "H GENERATE BACKUPSET" on TSM admin command
line !
Cheers .

Subject: Another backup set question

Hello,

I am still trying to set up a Admin Schedule to generate a backup set.
I need to one have a backup set for one filespace/volume for a client.
The other day I was able to generate a backup set that worked, But I did
it manually by going into the GUI. I clicked on the clients File Space
and used the drop down menu.  But when I try to schedule the backup set
to run using Admin Schedule Commands it doesn't work. I keep getting no
filespaces to process errors. When I used the GUI Drop down box to
generate a backup set it also put the FSID # in.
Why can't I duplicate that using a Admin Schedule command?
I  read that a backup set could be created using the using just the
filespace name. Am I missing something?  Is anyone else using a backup
set to archive a volume/filespace for a client's data?

All responses are welcome, Thanks in advance!


This worked (Manually generated backup set by clicking on clients file
space and using the drop down box to create a backup set.

This did not work (these were generated by setting up a specific time to
