Del,

All three are running V2R2 of TDP and were set up by people long gone.  The
current people weren't aware of the alternate DSM.OPT files.  So two of the
three are running and the admin for the third hasn't gotten back to me.

Thanks.

Fred,

Normally, a Data Protection for SQL schedule is an ACTION=COMMAND
type of schedule... which actually calls a batch file that launches
the Data Protection for SQL command to run the back up.

Did you update the Data Protection for SQL options files (DSM.OPT)
to point to the new TSM Server?
Are you specifying an alternate DSM.OPT file in the batch file?
If so, did you update that one to point to the correct TSM Server?
What type of scheduling are you using? (POLLING or PROMPTED?)
Do the old schedules still exist on the old TSM Server?
Is is the scheduler service that is looking at the old TSM Server
or Data Protection for SQL that is backing up to the old TSM Server?

Thanks,

Del
