Hi, for most of the backups we use the TSM scheduler. For some others, we
use Tivoli Workload Scheduler (former Maestro, Unisson). No problem with it.
Db2 backups are scheduled with AIX crons, TWS might be used there too.

Subject: Scheduling TSM backups using 3rd party schedulers


I am seeking information on the use of 3rd party schedulers to schedule TSM
backups.  My company is pushing the use of Control-M to take the place of
the TSM scheduler.  We tried once and the experience was not good so we
switched back to using the TSM scheduler.  There is still pressure, however,
to use Control-M.  Is anyone out there using a 3rd party scheduler?
Control-M?

Please share your experiences and preferences?  We are running TSM 4.2.3.4
on z/OS 1.2.  TSM 5.1.6.3 in in test mode.  One person told me that IBM told
him that a lot of companies use Control-M to schedule TSM backups.

Thank you in advance.

Hi all,

on GSE/Europe they (IBM) told us that the ITSM 5.2 will be released in May
or June.
An there should be a new ITSM-Server for Linux z/Series too ;-)

I got a "Sneak Peek of ITSM 5.2" which said "June 2003 - subject to
change".

Does anyone have a release date for this?

I was ordering some v5.1 manuals, and happened to see there is a v5.2
manual (Admin. Ref. for Windows), GC32-0783-01.
