Hi Ian,

(what happened on Sunday??)

Nothing of the sort - no traces, full privileges - I should have stated that it 
is a W2K3 client.

If you watch a windows log directory after starting the dsmcad, you will see 
these files get created and deleted very quickly..

Cheers,
Matthew

Is there a schedlogmax defined, or any trace flag that may be configured
on the client?

What ID is the client running under, does it have the privileges to
remove temp files it may be able to create?

Ian

Hello Storage Folk,

I can't seem to find any documentation or anyone else reporting this
files being created in the log directories.

We've all seen the change in the way the scheduler updates the log files
(seems to write to temp file before appending to the actual dsmsched.log
file itself) but my customer is complaining that this machine is falling
over in the middle of the night, and I need to disprove TSM as being a
cause. I can't figure out why these files are lying around here - having
checked their contents they contain messages like:

EXECUTE PROMPTED 1116

And

EXECUTE PROMPTED 1179

What are they? MS return codes?

Anyone seen this kind of behaviour in the past?

Cheers,
Matthew
