I agree about the Originator being a pain - the Activity Log browser is=

probably one of the three most often used parts of the admin client.  I=

reinstalled just the client (actually, I restored it, and the associate=

file to a separate directory, and then copied in the DSM.OPT, added an =

to the start menu, and I was in business.  Actually, while I really lik=

ability to resize the panels and have them remembered, I didn't see all=
 that
much new in the admin client.

I also found a nasty little bug in the scheduler events query - you can=
't ask
to just see the admin events - it gives you every scheduled event for t=

the half dozen admin activities I'm interested in.

Fortunately, someone had placed a brief blurb about a BAT file he had
written for the 3.1 scheduler last week --- I took this and expanded it=
 to
include more of the options described in the documentation, and was abl=
e to
get the scheduler to load as well as work automatically. It ran without=
 a
hitch all weekend in unattended mode, but I  hope I don't have to run i=
t in
interactive mode any time soon (looks a little unfriendly).

And the ORIGINATOR problem is truly a pain --- I really don't want to
reload v2 again because I do like the look and ease of use with the v3.=
11
client, but may entertain the idea if the machines really get bogged do=
wn.
Hopefully IBM will get the fix for this out soon.
