The pre and post schedule commands on NT work properly for me. I have several NT servers with a variety of TSM client levels and they all work fine. Have you checked your DSMSCHED.LOG and DSMERROR.LOG to see what is happening.

Also, ensure when you define the pre/post schedule commands that you tell TSM you want it to wait for the command to complete. If you bring up the client GUI there is a check box for this option. Or if you look in the DSM.OPT:

These would wait:
preschedulecmd c:\some.cmd
postschedulecmd c:\some.cmd

While these wouldn't wait:
presNchedulecmd c:\some.cmd
postNschedulecmd c:\some.cmd

Notice the "N" after the PRE/POST, this tells TSM not to wait.

I hope this helps.

Those commands - post and preschedulecmd only stop and wait on Unix - Not
NT - so only use if you can live with the command scripts going on at the
same time as the backups.

Hello everybody,

it seems that the postschedulecmd is executed as soon as the scheduled job
is startet. I expected that it is not executed until  the backup is
finished (as described in the manual- or am I misreading it ?). Is this a
bug ?
I need to do a cmd, AFTER the incremental backup is done. My clients are
tsm 4.1.16 for Windows NT.

Thanks in advance
