Bruce, Tony,

Try setting the following variable in
the batch file that you run right
BEFORE you kick off the tdpsqlc command.

    _VIRTUAL_SERVER_NAME_=clus-server-name

where clus-server-name is the name of
your "CLUSTER virtual server" and
NOT the SQL virtual server name.
---
For example:
For example:

===========================================

SET _VIRTUAL_SERVER_NAME_=VIRTUAL_SERVER_NAME
tdpsqlc backup * full /sqlserver=VIRTUAL_SQL_SERVER_NAME

===========================================
Notice the values are different. One is the
virtual cluster name, and the other the
virtual SQL cluster name.

Thanks,

Del
