Jack,

Getting a manually invoked nohup-ed TSM scheduler to stick around in AIX
has caused a few problems in the past - a look in the archives will
probably reveal that. There's some funny thing that I seem to remember
about redirected stdout nohup-ed processes dying - I recall that this
seemed to work for me in the past:

# nohup dsmc sched </dev/null > /dev/null 2>&1 &

Or, manually open a new shell:

# ksh
# nohup dsmc sched > /dev/null 2>&1 &
# exit

And just check with a `ps -ef` to ensure the dsmc sched is still
present...

Hope this helps, 

Rgds,

Subject: AIX startup of TSM scheduler


Ok, I am showing my old age/lack of memory/in-experience in this area,
but:

   I need to reset the passwords for a couple AIX clients.

Where do I start up the scheduler on these machines? (AIX 4.3.3)

How do I do an elequent kind of thing to do:
        nohup dsmc sched

or whatever to restart the scheduler by hand (rather than rebooting)?

... TIA ... JC
