What you are asking for is not possible, at least not with a capability of
being able to restore from a single system. Among other things, you can
not use a single client to restore all sched logs since, for example, a
Windows client can not restore data backed up by NetWare or Unix.

Your best bet might be to try to automate some process where the client's
dsmsched.log and dsmerror.log files are emailed to you, or copied to a
shared network disk. Perhaps you can set up some kind of POSTSCHEDULECMD
processing to handle this.

Other members of this list with far more practical experience than I might
have other suggestions to offer.

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.
