Steve,
We backup our large OS/2 file servers using separate ADSM nodes for each
drive (C:& D: are backed up together, E: is backed up separately, so is F:,
etc.). We build separate OPT files for each node and place them in a
subdirectory of the ADSM directory; each node's log files get stored there,
too.
We place the following commands in STARTUP.CMD:
'START "C&D DRIVE BACKUP" /MIN C:\ADSM\MULTISCH CDDRIVE'
'START "E DRIVE BACKUP" /MIN C:\ADSM\MULTISCH EDRIVE'
'START "F DRIVE BACKUP" /MIN C:\ADSM\MULTISCH FDRIVE'
MULTISCH.CMD looks like this:
/**REXX**/
ARG SUBDIR
'SET DSM_CONFIG=C:\ADSM\'SUBDIR'\DSM.OPT'
'SET DSM_LOG=C:\ADSM\'SUBDIR
SAY 'SUBDIR=' SUBDIR
'DSMC SCH -PASSWORD=xxxx'
The DSM.OPT file is identical for each node except for the following
statements:
NETBIOSNAME ACFSxxxxxxCD or E or F
NODENAME xxxxxxxx_CD or _E or _F
DOMAIN C:,D: or E: or F:
SCHEDLOGNAME C:\ADSM\CDDRIVE\DSMSCH.LOG or \EDRIVE\DSMSCH.LOG,
etc.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

hi,
on an adsm client can i start multiple schedulers (in the startup folder
on an os/2 machine for instance) to stagger a few different backups to
kick off at say 20 min. intervals, each backing up different drives on
the same node?
thanks alot,
steve
