cd /d "c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient"
dsmc i d:

Anyway, you are already in the baclient directory, so just to the backup now:

dsmc i d:

I want to backup E:\ not D:\ D is the cd-rom

 

[sersoy]

how tsm see D drive in my dsm.opt D is not defined

 

[sersoy]

I am waiting for your replies , thanks

Your first post said:

I want to backup D:\

So I assumed you were backing up D:.

If you want to backup E:, replace D: with E: in the backup command.

 

[marclant]

how tsm see D drive in my dsm.opt D is not defined

A drive doesn't need to be specified in dsm.opt if you explicitly specify the drive letter in the backup command.

I am getting this log what can be the problem,

I am getting this log what can be the problem,

You have to read more carefully what we write.

First, now I know why you the scheduler doesn't work:

Node Name: ARGESERVERN
Please enter your user id <ARGESERVERN>:

Please enter password for user id "ARGESERVERN": ******

You are prompted for a password, which means the password is not stored in the registry, that is why you can't start the scheduler. Follow the steps I recommended here: https://adsm.org/forum/index.php?threads/can-tsm-backup-files-in-virtual-machines.31039/#post-129036

Second:

c:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient>cd /e "c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient

I already mentioned you got this because of a syntax error here: https://adsm.org/forum/index.php?threads/can-tsm-backup-files-in-virtual-machines.31039/#post-129040 and here: https://adsm.org/forum/index.php?th...-in-virtual-machines.31039/page-2#post-129055



Third:

Incremental backup of volume 'd:'
Successful incremental backup of 'd:'

The backup was successful. But I thought you wanted to backup E:

I want to backup E:\ not D:\ D is the cd-rom

So, just replace D: with E: in your backup command, if you want to backup E:, as I mentioned here: https://adsm.org/forum/index.php?th...-in-virtual-machines.31039/page-2#post-129055
