Have a general question since it appears you are a Mac person. Under current
release of TSM what do they say about backing up Mac Volumes ? Is it supported ..We
still are running ADSM but will be upgrading next week and wonder if things
changed...Thanks

Recent postings have noted that the TSM 3.7 Macintosh client scheduler
does not work. Some customers using are using TSM 3.7 clients because
of advanced Mac OS levels, but can't really use the TSM 4.1 client
fixtest package because they still have ADSM 3.1 servers, and the mix
is "not supported".
I worked with fellow customer Bernd Knaak, of Germany, on his instance
of this problem. It occurred to me that a good compromise might be to
download and adopt just the 4.1 fixtest scheduler into a 3.7 Mac client.

Bernd tried that and reports that it works:
"I downloaded TSM scheduler daemon 4.1.1.13, replace the origin one from TSM
3.7.2.0, replace the alias in the startup folder of the MAC OS 9 and
restart the MAC.
ProcessWatcher shows the daemon running and after a while the TSM
scheduler starts, get its schedule and stop. After a view minutes - I set
the schedule-starttime to the time showing by my clock - the TSM backup
began and runs."
Others with this problem may want to try this approach and see if it works as
well for them. If any problems, please let us all know.
