In the "Client-acceptor scheduler services versus the traditional scheduler 
Services" section on page 225 of the 

IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows Backup-Archive
Clients
Version 6.4
Installation and User's Guide

 It says "Generally, using the client acceptor daemon to manage the scheduler 
is the preferred method."

Nick,

The 6.2 Windows Backup/Archive Installation and User's Guide, page 209, says 
dsmcad is the preferred scheduling method.  Also, Tivoli Storage Manager 
traditional scheduler services "Requires higher use of system resources when 
idle" and "Restart the traditional scheduler periodically to free system 
resources previously used by system calls."

The scheduler service has a memory leak.  It is unlikely that DSMCAD is 
deprecated.

A colleague insists that TSM service once told him that DSMCAD would be 
deprecated and that we need to convert to using the TSM Scheduler routinely.

The TSM 6.3 client manuals, however, refer to both techniques as valid choices.

Has anyone ever been told by IBM that DSMCAD had been or will be deprecated, 
either in general or in very specific cases?

Alternately, can anyone point to current IBM recommendations in favor of DSMCAD?

Thanks,
Nick
