Thanks, we think we found the issue>>> Even though SELINUX was
disabled,  iptables were being loaded.  If there is still a issue I am
going to try Webport.

We use port 1502.  You just need to pick one that is not being used by

David, ok

I looked at the WEBports option is there a special way to figure out
what ports to use?

Thanks

David Thanks for your response,

I was told though there is no firewall however, I will look at the
Webports option to try.

btw- I forget to mention we can do manual backups

I've seen this when a firewall was active between TSM and the
client.
It that case you need to use a WEBPorts option in the client so
there
is
a fixed port being used and then open that port in the firewall.

Hi All,

We have a linux client (5.5.2.7) that was currently backing up that
has
stopped for some reason, when I start the cad it looks like its
ready
to
backup however it misses its backup each night. Has anyone else had
similar issues with a linux backup

[root@svbser1]# tail dsmsched.log

nothing in the dsmerror.log that would show the cause

Nothing in the dsmsched.log it just shows it ready for the next
backup
but it never backs up

I did find out one thing I am unable to ping our TSM Server from
the
client

root@svbser1 bin]# ping tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
ping: unknown host tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
[root@svbser1 bin]# ping tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
ping: unknown host tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
[root@svbser1 bin]# ping tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
ping: unknown host tsmserver.xxxx.xxx.xx
[root@svbser1]#


F.Y.I - there is no firewall and selinux is disabled

However, I can ping our TSM from the other linux server using the
same
client and os it's backing of successfully.

[root@svbser2]# ping tsmserver.xxx.xxx.xx
