Thanks shaw,

These are emergency backupsets we are running because we can't lose any data, 
so were not looking to do a TOC for them now. I just need to create them for 
several servers.  


Thanks, yes the backup_set_name_prefix was missing from the command.  I finally 
got the command (below) however the backup set failed

Generate backupset govsrv3x1 Boveofront31Bkup devclass=lto3class scratch=yes 
retention=nolimit  (SESSION: 1304679)

ANR3503E Generation of backup set for GOVSRV3X1 asBoveofront31Bkup.709804709 
(data type File) failed.

Look at the copygroup for the node you are trying to create a backupset
for.  The error is indicating that the value for "TOC destination" is
empty or invalid.  The backupset will still be created, but there won't be
any table of contents.   You need to point that to a storage pool.  a fast
disk-based one is preferable.  (This will need to be read when you browse
the backupset's files in the future)

run "help generate backupset" and go through each parameter.  (Your next
email is missing the "backup_set_name_prefix" I think)

Regards,
Shawn
