hrmmm...
I tried this in the Linux client's dsm.opt file.

preschedulecmd "/path/to/script/vpnstart.sh"

But kept getting this error for that command -

ANS1036S Invalid option 'PRESHCEDULECMD' found in options file
'/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.opt'
         at line number : 17
         Invalid entry : '  preshcedulecmd "/path/to/script/vpnstart.sh"'

this is when starting "dsmc sched" command.

So what am I missing?
