TSM for Mail 5.3.2(TDP) - automated scheduling?

[pichelman]

Hi,

TSM Server 5.3.1.5
TSM Client 5.3.5.6
TDP 5.3.2

Q SCHED:
TDP DOM_HOURLY_ARCH- CMD 05/01/2008 05:00:00 15 M 1 H Any
IVE
TDP DOM_INCR_BACKUP CMD 05/01/2008 21:00:00 12 H 1 D WD

Q ASSOC:

TDP DOM_HOURLY_ARCHIVE WMNADOM4TDP
TDP DOM_INCR_BACKUP WMNADOM4TDP


I tried following TSM "Data Protection for Windows Lotus Domino " pdf/guide - and ran thru the Automating Backups section.
It seemed a little confusing(to me anyway!).

I setup c:\dominc.cmd and domarc.cmd and the schedule and association with my nodename.
I created a new node name for TSP domain name type backups - is that correct?
My regular archive client backup is named another node name - this the way I should go?

I run the TDP GUI client on the server and it backs up mail & DB's just fine. I don't know how to setup a schedule via TSM - is it thru a "presched" in my Archive client dsm.opt?

Is it just a cmd via the Amdin console - why can't I get that to work?

Sorry I am not sure how to setup and have searched google and can't find any articles that are relevant.

I'll provide more details, if needed.
TIA!

What you need to do is create TSM schedules that calls the CMD files which process the .cmd files you have created.

Create the required TDP for Domino services wherein these services are associated with the right TSM schedules calling the commands which is in .cmd format:

DEFine SCHedule domain_name schedule_name Type=Client ACTion=command

Hi,

Do I still have to setup a scheduler on the client machine?
Does the TSM Admin kick off the schedule below?

I get this mesage in my activity log:

ANR2578W Schedule DOM_HOURLY_ARCHIVE in domain TDP for
node WMNADOM4TDP has missed its scheduled startup
window.

Yes you need the scheduler on the client machine or it will not work.
