Thanks for the feedback. I checked out the entry you pointed to. While the symptom is the same, it don't think it is my problem.
Why would changing the name from "dsmschedw.log" to "dsmschex.log" work if it has to do with permissions. In both cases, the file did not exist and should have been created on the first run. The directory it is writing these logs to is: /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin/domdsmc_vram12. I am sudo as root and running the command: su - vram12 -c "domdsmc_vram12 selective \"*\" /ADSMOPTF=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin/domdsmc_vram12/dsmweekly.opt" If the ERRORLOGNAME points to: /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin/domdsmc_vram12/dsmerrow.log or /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin/domdsmc_vram12/dsmerror.log or any combination of 8-or less characters before the ".opt", it works. But pointing to: /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/domino/bin/domdsmc_vram12/dsmerrorw.log fails every time.
