Hi Dell,

I have viewed the "activity log" for the Exchange agent (taken from the
example in the manual).

On Tue, 3 Nov 1998, Del Hoobler wrote:

Here is a copy of the parts that start the Exchange Agent backup:

c:\win32app\ibm\adsm\agentexc\excdsmc /backup:dir,full
/logfile:c:\win32app\ibm\adsm\agentexc\excsfull.log > %exc_dir%\excshed.log

c:\win32app\ibm\adsm\agentexc\excdsmc /backup:is,full
/logfile:c:\win32app\ibm\adsm\agentexc\excsfull.log > %exc_dir%\excshed.log

On a `query ses' it responds that there is no other session running other than
my admin session.

Any ideas ?
