From: Gill, Geoffrey L. [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Someone here has gone off and created their own cmd file that TSM launches to do an archive. I can't seem to find anything in the help file on these variables. Maybe someone more familiar with variables can please tell me if this will work. From what I can tell looking at the return codes it looks like it is saying it found nothing to backup and reports a failure.
I'm told if they run this cmd file manually from the server it works. Why then would TSM have a problem with it when all it's doing is calling the same file? **************** Remember, folks, that when you can successfully run a Windows-based backup manually, but the scheduled backup fails, it is *always* a Windows-based permissions problem. The manual backup is likely being done by someone who is logged in as an administrator-level person, and the scheduler service is likely being run by the (non-interactive) System ID. A good beer says that the files that you are attempting to backup cannot be accessed by whatever ID is running the scheduler service. There are very few good reasons why anyone should take System's privileges away from files; there are no security issues here. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
