One correction: under current licensing rules, you DO NOT have to buy an
extra license for two nodes on one system. The license covers all data
moved from one managed system. You get to register extra server licenses
to cover this. I hope that Tivoli improves their node licensing on the
server to cover this someday.

Hi Gerrit,
There are two ways to do it. If this is just one important server, you
could give it two TSM nodenames; that way you can install two scheduler
services, one that backs up D: and one that backs up C. That way you don't
have the problem of one schedule waiting on the other, and the usual TSM
CLIENT EVENT tables will tell you if the schedules work or fail. You will
have to buy a second TSM client license.
If you want to do it with .bat files: I just created two files on my
system:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
c:
cd c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient
dsmc incremental c:\
pause
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
c:
cd c:\program files\tivoli\tsm\baclient
dsmc incremental d:\
pause
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I started them both running at the same time, no problem.
(Once you get them working on your system, take out the PAUSE statement.)
To schedule these, look at the Windows AT command
(Open a DOS window, enter HELP AT).
It's like CRON for WinNT.
I'm not a WIndows expert, and I don't have a WinNT system to test it (this
is Win2K) but I think it's the same:
A simple version:
at 13:30 /every:monday,tuesday "D:\backupc.bat"
If you just type AT, it displays the tasks that are currently scheduled via
AT.
The disadvantage is that the TSM central scheduler isn't aware that you re
doing this, so you won't see successes/failures in the client EVENTS.
Hope that helps...

Wanda,
I know how to do this with AIX scripts. Do you have examples of how to do
it on NT. I've tried 2 schedules, but the one waits for the other to
finish
before starting. So I presume you going to have to write some cmd/bat
files
to do this. How?
Thanks and regards

That's to do it automagically - even at 3.1, we always had the capability
to
start multiple sessions ourselves.
If you have a C: and D: drive, you can open a window and start a backup of
C:, then open another window and start the backup of D: concurrently. Or
do
the same thing in the background with clever schedules...

Both client *and* server need to be at version 3.7 or higher for multiple
backup session support.

Hi all TSM'ers
TSM ver 4.1 client on NT
ADSM ver 3.1 server on AIX
Is it possible (and does it work) to start multiple sessions in this
configuration?
I've tried it, but only get the metadata session + one data session. I've
tried
resourceutilization set at 2 and 3. By the way, does the
resourceutilization
control the total amount of sessions (metadata + data) or only the data
sessions?
Thanks and regards
