Bill, The nohup is probably unnecessary if you are using a modern shell. I am
also not familiar with HP syntax but I don't use
dash in front of the sched argument after the dsmc binary.... the entry from my
/etc/inittab file is as follows:

/usr/lpp/adsm/bin/dsmc sched >/dev/null 2>&1

I recently installed the tivoli adsm product on an HP 9000, running O/S
version 11.00.  I kick off the scheduler daemon using nohup <full_path>/dsmc
-sched -pass=**** 2> /dev/null &
 The daemon starts, runs for a few seconds and then ends; no errors
 The daemon starts, runs for a few seconds and then ends; no errors
displayed, no entries in the syslog.
  Anyone else experience this sort of thing and, if so, how did you rectify
it?
TIA
