Re: Is there a way to email notifications in TSM?

[Martin, Jon R.]

Etienne,

        Here is something similar that I do on my AIX Server.  It could
probably be written differently (better) but it serves the purpose.  It
checks if any of three different messages are in the log and if so mails
that information to me.

Thanks,
Jon Martin

Subject: Is there a way to email notifications in TSM?


Hi,

      I was wondering if there is a way to get the server to email alerts
and failure and specific messages to admins within TSM or without another
expen$ive software?

My servers are running on Win2000 and AIX.

Thanks

Etienne
