Debbie,
we use the TSM ODBC client and Microsoft Access to get this information,
though I think MS Excel can also user SQL queries against the TSMODBC
client. You can download the ODBC client from:
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/client/v5r3/Windows/x32/LATEST/TSM530C_ODBC.EXE
Instructions for using the TSMODBC interface are documented at:
ftp://service.boulder.ibm.com/storage/tivoli-storage-management/maintenance/client/v5r3/Windows/x32/LATEST/TSM530C_ODBC_README.TXT

I was looking at the database tables and trying to find a way to get the
node names, backup start and end times and the amount of data backed up,
into an excel spread sheet. We backup over 100 servers a night and the
operations people manually go throught the activity log to find, and
record, this info. Just starting this job, I haven't had extra time to
go through any utilites or macros (I'm not even sure where to find them at
this point) that might supply this info. How does everyone else collect
this info?
Currently, we are on TSM 5.1.1 and I'm planning to go to 5.1.9 soon. I
understand there is some reporting capability there....Eventually, we'll
get off AIX 4.3.3 and will be able to use a higher version of TSM....but
until that time I need to make the best of it,,,,
Thanks,
Debbie
