Ken,
You will find the server commands DEFINE SCHEDULE and UPDATE SCHEDULE in
the TSM Administrator's Reference. The client ARCHIVE command is
documented in the client manual. I leave it for you to find them within
the books, as this is a good opportunity to become more acquainted with
them.
Best regards,
Andy

Thank you Andy.
I will try this.
btw-can you or someone else tell me in the TSM manual(s) where these
archive parameters are documented on how to use them??

Correction: my sample schedule definition should have included the
ACTION=ARCHIVE parameter:
DEFINE SCHEDULE STANDARD MYARCHSCHED
ACTION=ARCHIVE
OBJECTS="c:\mydir\ c:\yourdir\"
OPTIONS="-subdir=yes -archmc=myarchmc"

ARCHIVE operations require one or more file specifications, i.e. "dsmc
archive c:\mydir\ -subdir=yes" or "dsmc archive c:\mydir\ c:\yourdir\
-subdir=yes". Thus when defining schedules on the TSM server, you need to
use the OBJECTS parameter to specify the file specs, and the OPTIONS
parameter to specify any options (like -SUBDIR=YES and/or -ARCHMC=blah,
etc.).
For example, I could define a schedule like this:
DEFINE SCHEDULE STANDARD MYARCHSCHED
OBJECTS="c:\mydir\ c:\yourdir\"
OPTIONS="-subdir=yes -archmc=myarchmc"
For additional info, see DEFINE SCHEDULE and UPDATE SCHEDULE in the
Administrator Reference and look up the ARCHIVE command in the client
manual.

Andy

In poking around some more, I found that the TSM Backup-Archive Clients
Install/Users Guide has the "include.archive XXXXXXXXXXXX" statement in
the normal include/exclude file.
I will try this and see if it works.
I can do manual client archives via the GUI so I know archives work.
Thanks for your trouble.

Client has been backing up normally with schedmode=polling.
I have never used archives before, so I need some help here.
I setup the archive copygroup to keep archives for 2555 days (7 years).
I created an archive schedule and thought that would be it as far as
archiving configuration goes, but I received the following error in the
client dsmsched.log:
08/15/2003 15:02:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:07:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:12:19 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:17:20 ANS1079E No file specification entered
08/15/2003 15:22:20 ANS1079E No file specification entered
The Message manual indicates that "You did not enter a file specification
as prompted".
Where does one enter the "file specification" for archive if the archive
is being done in a polling schedmode?
Doesn't archive just read the client dsm.opt file for the
includes/excludes and use this for the archive??
I am not using CLOPTSETs.
TIA
