You will have to create a service for the scheduler using dsmcutil. exp
dsmcutil inst /name:"ADSM Scheduler" /password:***
The other part I do is setup the enviroment varaibles
DSM_DIR
DSM_CONFIG

Here is what we have in our opt file this is alot of over kill but... The
last step is to start the 2 services. The one you made and ADSM Client
Acceptor for the web interface.

Subject:  New NT Client




I need some starter help with an NT client, all of my experience
up to date has dealt with UNIX clients...

I have just gotten done installing an ADSM client on an NT box...
I setup default management classes and policies...
I was able to run my initial incremental backup...

1.  According to directions I brought up a DOS prompt and started
     the client from it...
     \Program Files\IBM\adsm\baclient>dsmc schedule

2.  It says if I close the window it kills the client, how do I start it in
     the background...

3.  Where does "dsmsched.log" reside or do I not have one because
     the client is running in the foreground...

4.  During install an ADSM desktop icon was created...  What is that for???
     I am backing up an NT Server and I'm not used to using a GUI, should
     I have started the client from it???

5.  This box has an Oracle NT database on it, are there any pitfalls I
should
     be looking out for...

Any help would be greatly appreciated...
