It's definitely not supposed to happen.  I have it happen occassionally
on a lesser scale than what you're describing, and it's almost always
Windows clients.  Some of them I tracked to oddities that occur when you
install the client through rdp session instead of at the console.  Some
of them I still haven't figured out.  They work right 90% of the time,
but for some unknown reason will fail once or twice a month.

I have a general question here.

I have about 150 clients.
Client info:

Windows 2003 server
Windows 2000 server
Red Hat Linux 3 AS
AIX 5.1

All running tsm client version 5 or later sending data to a tsm server
on AIX running version 5.3

On a nightly basis I have at least 6 or 7 of these servers that miss
their backups due to the service stopping. Is this common. Do other
people experience these misses or is it something I need to look into
on
these servers. For the most part they are not the same server and I
have
the schedules spread from 7pm to 12 pm hourly.

Just wanting to get a general guage of if there is something that I
need
to look into that I am doing wrong or if this is a normal and
acceptable
level of misses per night.

Thanks,
Andrew
