Alex, try the same thing for Sat 03/29/2002 (the fifth Saturday in a
5-Saturday month). Results are interesting & probably not desired.
Both of the schedules set DayOfWeek="Saturday", and both deviate from
online help for "Define Schedule" / "Period Units". I verified that TSM
does follow the documented behavior when DayOfWeek="Any", so I think
that's an unstated presumption of the online help documentation:
(from online help)
Months
Specifies that the time between startup windows is in months.
Note:When you specify PERUNITS=MONTHS, the scheduled operation
will be processed each month on the same date. For
example,
If the start date for the scheduled operation is
02/04/1998, the schedule will process on the 4th of every
month thereafter. However, if the date is not valid for
the
next month, then the scheduled operation will be processed
on the last valid date in the month. Thereafter,
subsequent
operations are based on this new date. For example, if the
start date is 03/31/1998, the next month's operation will
be scheduled for 04/30/1998. Thereafter, all subsequent
operations will be on the 30th of the month until
February.
Because February has only 28 days, the operation will be
scheduled for 02/28/1999. Subsequent operations will be
processed on the 28th of the month.

Mark,
Actually, Joachim's suggestion works. You can definitely do first
Saturday
of the month. All the dates below are the first Saturday of the month.

It can't be done with the TSM scheduler. You could do every fourth
Saturday, but that's as close as you can get.
If you *have* to schedule the first Saturday of every month, you're
going to have to use an external scheduler (cron, at).
