The operation and the actual successful backup are two different things. In
referring to a TSM operations (i.e. ACTION=INCREMENTAL), not a script, can
show proof of missed files and errors from reports from my activity log
that
a "success of the operation" does not mean that you had a successful
backup.

We currently have a Critsit open with Tivoli and IBM hardware support and
this is one of the major issues.
Just trying to help, I guarantee that if you rely only on a q event to let
your customers know if you have all their files backed up you will get
burned.

This is true only if the schedule definition launches a script, i.e. DEF
SCH mydomain myschedule ACTION=COMMAND OBJECTS="myscript", and the script
contains commands that run asynchronously; in that case, TSM has no way to
track the actions taken within the script. It can only say, "the script
was launched successfully". In short, the success or failure of the
command depends on the return code issued from the script.
For scheduled TSM operations (i.e. ACTION=INCREMENTAL), you should not
have any problems determining success or failure of the operation. For
ACTION=COMMAND operations where the command

We also used "query event * * begindate=today-1 enddate=today ex=yes"
until
I learned that this does not report on clients that were or were not
backed
up successfully, this ONLY reports on if the script or schedule was
successful. To quote straight from the h q event page "Use this command to
check whether schedules were processed successfully."
I will not go into a rant about this, just learn from my mistake, query
event will NOT tell you if your backup was successful.

What are some good ways to get an automated daily report on which clients
were or were no backed up successfully?
