Kent,

We have a weird situation also..

We have a NT client, who does a full backup every week and daily(s) the
other 6.

We wrote a batch job to kill the daily schedule and enable the weekly
schedule (Sat)..

And then on Sunday we wrote a batch job to disable the weekly and enable
the daily.

I'm sure you could use the same philosophy. ..

Forgive my ignorance, I have trouble with NT ... I'm guessing there is any
easier way to get around this - it works...........

We have an NT client that's associated with a Solaris TSM Server's daily
backup schedule.  On the 3rd of every month, an application process runs
on the NT client that clashes badly with TSM's scheduled backup, so we've
been asked to disable the TSM backup of this client on the 3rd of each
month.

There's no way to schedule this per-month exception using the Client
Schedule parameters.  Could someone recommend a tried/tested method for
accomplishing this?

-rsvp, thanks
