To all:

I've recently installed the ADSM SQL Connect Agent on one NT box, and after
correcting a few small problems with scripting, etc., the following
entries/show-stopper appeared in the logs. I don't know whether I need to
place some other parm in the agent's DSM.OPT file (what would it be?), or
whether something in the incremental script must refer to the node name, the
sql server name, and passwords, etc. There was no mention of the agent
needing to be a user/manager on the machine in the documentation, and the
agent was installed with full authority. The message response in the manual
is pretty broad in scope, so I thought someone out there might have seen
this particular problem before, and would be able to give me a quick place
to look before I start setting up NT processes, etc., to track down the
problem's source. Any help would be appreciated since we're still manually
backing up the databases.

Thanks.
