Install the TSM Operations Center 7.1 when you install the 7.1 server.
(Not available with 6.2)
Very small footprint, free with the server.

Subject: [ADSM-L] Backup job status

Folks:

What is the best way to track a TSM backup job's status?

We are currently using TSM 6.2, working on the upgrade to TSM 7.1, and have a 
business user that desires a simple interface with which to check status of a 
backup job.  "Green-light/red-light" sort of display, with the ability to 
drill-in if necessary.

And I don't mean just the status of the job completion (did the job reach the 
end?) but covering the status of all the files backed up (Job completed, but 
"failed" because it was unable to backup one of the
drives...)

Is there anything built into TSM to provide such reporting?

I'm happy to read on my own if someone is willing to point me in the right 
direction, but would love to gather practical advice and experience as well.

Thanks!
