If DSMC sched works for you then use it. Main thing on Novell is that with large amount of files, we found that dsmc sched would cause problems mainly because resources (memory) were not freed up when backup finished. Using DSMCAD solves this problem as it unloads the scheduler after each backup completes.
A lot of general recommendations can always be subject to YMMV! David B.

But I have had some problems with it so? - 2: Using the DSMC SCHED, never had problems so far... but not the recommended method! So what to do? What is your experiences?
