I have a utility that has been invaluable to me called Servergraph and it
has this specific report "Warning: failed backups detected for some of your
machines" that helps with what you might be looking for.

Thank You,

Has anyone a utility (commercial or freeware) that can produce a report
of which filesystems (HPUX, Solaris, Windows directories or drive
letters) are not backed up? Essentially it would have to do a
directly/drive listing, compare it to what the dsm.sys or TSM has in its
database and list the differences. This would avoid missing complete
filesystems or drive letters (in Windows) all together.

So far I was unable to find such an item but it seems like this is a
very common problem especially when you deal with hundreds of servers
and a lot of changes (drive, directory, filesystem adds in particular)
that can occur.

Any help is appreciated.
