Re: adsm client on unix

Daniel,

Do a Q status and check out MAXSESSIONS and MAXSCHEDSESSIONS

Use the SET MAXSCHEDSESSIONS command to regulate the number of sessions
that the server can use for processing scheduled work. This command
specifies the
maximum number of scheduled sessions as a percentage of the total number
of server
sessions available.

Hope this helps.

                ADSM Server MVS 3.1.2.0
                ADSM Client UNIX (os/390 Unix System Servies) 2.1.01

                Anyone have any idea why on my UNIX client, the backups
                fail if I start the dsmc schedule BEFORE the server has
                me scheduled, but if I start the schedule AFTER the
server's
                scheduled time, it works?

                So, let's say that the server is scheduled to backup my
                UNIX client at 09:00.  What I would normally do is start
the
                schedule on the client at 08:45 or 08:55...then, when
09:00
                rolls around, the ADSM server says he cannot contact the
                UNIX client.

                But, if I kill that schedule process and start another
one,
                let's say at 09:05, it works.  The backup starts without
a
                hitch.

                So, from this you can tell that the dsmc schedule
                So, from this you can tell that the dsmc schedule
process started
                AFTER the Server was scheduled to start the backup.

                Is this normal?  The dsm.sys file is set to PROMPTED.
