Hi Luc,

yes, you should put these to keywords into dsm.sys.
Example:    PRESchedulecmd      /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/precmd.sh
I use the precmd to backup the system configuration to a flat file using 
cfg2html.

Betreff: pre and post script in AIX


Hi,

I have a TSM server W2K 5.2.0.2
I have to backup a AIX server, but to do so . I have to run a script before
and after the backup ...
What option should I use ...??  I found 2 options to put  in the DSM.SYS
file  (POSTSCHEDULECMD and PRESCHEDULECMD) but I'm not sure ..

Should it work ????

thanks
