I have a development server and am testing the upgrade, throwing test
systems on it to see how it compares to 3.1.1.3 I should be ready in the
next week or so to actually upgrade. And possibly put into place a master
server for all the management processes independent of the servers that
actually do the backing up. I have seen very few issues with the upgrade and
minimal change in the performance and efficiency of the database structures.
I still see this as a necessary upgrade based on the enhanced management
tools that it incorporates. I would be interested to hear from anyone about
problems that they have encountered.

                Fellow ADSM'ers


                I just went through the process of upgrading the our NT ADSM
server to
                v3.1.2.  In the process, I seem to have lost the Central
Scheduler Service.
                Has anyone else had this problem?

                I would also like to throw in my two cents on the install
process.  I don't
                know if there is a readme file that I missed, but no where
did I see
                mentioned that the upgradedb option had to be issued when
first starting
                dsmserv.exe.  This made for quit an anxious and painful
experience.

                Well, any ideas on how to get the Central Scheduler back?

                regards,
