Daniel,

Do you have the TCPClientaddress set to the IP address of the client
server? This is located in the dsm.opt file (or dsm.sys) on the client
machine.

Good news is just life's way of keeping you off balance.

I have a nodename, prodwf01, that backs up successfully each day.

However, the hostname 'prodwf01' isn't resolved by either DNS, nor does it
exist in the
host file.  The client scheduler is set to 'prompted'.

How the heck is ADSM getting in touch with prodwf01?   How is the nodename
resolving to an IP?
