We are using TSM release 4.1.4 on an OS/390 V2R9 mainframe, backing up an
AIX server at release 4.3, TSM client 4.1.2.14.  The exclude list options do
not work at all, which is a separate issue.  Since the exclude list is not
working, we went back to specifying domain statements in the dsm.opt file.
TSM says that it has successfully backed up this server for the last 11 days
(spreadsheet, below), but several of the SPECIFIED domains have not been
backed up at all.  I did stop and restart the TSM scheduler on the server,
and conducted incremental backups.  These domains are still not touched by
the scheduled backups.  Does anyone have any suggestions?
