As far as I know, under Windows it's just a matter of reporting back the
right errorlevel.
I experienced also a problem with the TDP for Oracle (Rman) reporting.
In both cases I had to set the returned errorlevel (by the script) from 3 to
2 to get the TSM-server report the failed backup.
In a Windows batch something like "find uihghuks >NUL" will give you that
%errorlevel%
