Re: How to run a unix shell script by an administrative schedule ?

Hi *SMers,

I have set up an administrative schedule, which does the following:
- backup all primary pools to copy pool
- backup db to tape
- delete older db backups.
Next step should be to copy some important files (volhist.out,
devconf.out etc) to a remote server. I've written a shell script to
accomplish this.
Question: How can this shell script be called by the above mentioned
admin. schedule?

Any help is appreciated

regards Guenther

Guenther,

You can not do this directly as a "Admin Schedule", however you could do
a little trick and get it done.  I am assuming that the TSM server
system also has a TSM node assigned to it.  If so you could run a client
schedule that calls the OS level script.  But you might just consider
running this script from an OS scheduler like cron if it is a Unix machine.

I hope that helps.
