One of the Windows NT administrators here had some trouble with a
restore to a Windows NT 4 system with a 3.7.0.0 TSM client. He started
up the GUI client, set up a restore, watched a couple of hundred
megabytes of data come back, and logged off, confidently expecting
the restore to continue in his absence. The following morning he
discovered that the restore was terminated at the same or nearly the
same time as he logged off. He asked me whether there is any way to
have a restore continue after the user who started it logs off. I
could approximate the result he has in mind by starting a command
line restore from the central scheduler (assuming he is not using
any of the GUI capabilities that do not have command line counterparts).
I have not thought of any way to get exactly the behavior he wants.
Is this possible?
