Subject: How to write script to automate TSM 5.11


I am attempting to find out how to write scripts for TSM 5.11 in an Win 2k
environment to automate the various commands during a backup.  Currently, I
am using the command line to access the TSM server thru my workstation.
What I want to do is write a script for instance, "q vol *
access=unavailable" which an operator could type one command and get
results of which vols need to be updated.  Then that output file would be
the input for the "upd vol [volname] access=readwrite".

If anyone has written that or knows where I can go to find out that info, I
would appreciate it.

Thanks,
Ron Lochhead
