Yes, this is correct. In most cases it is left as 'S' as there is no real difference in what they do; however I did see a site where they wanted to keep it on the Agent side for some sort of security reason.

Yes, many weeks ago. I just uploaded again (Control-M File Watcher Utility.doc) but still cannot see the doc.

I thought I had uploaded a file via the 'uploads' page but it does not show up?

Data Protector's own scheduler is rarely used and a lot of companies use Control-M to deal with the particular problems presented by DP. The good news is that you can solve these issues, the bad news is that there is some initial work involved. We run the backups like this - omnib -datalist your_dat...

Hi, We are running Control-M Server 6.3.1 (with all latest patches) on HP-UX with Agents on Unix and Windows. I have just converted an existing Windows Agent to a remote agent (i.e. Agentless). I followed the standard install and it looks like it runs stuff ok but I cannot view the Job Sysout on the...

In Unix there is the sleep command, the number is seconds. So sleep 600 will just wait 10 minutes and nothing in that time ( sleep 900 = 15 minutes). This used to be a Windows utility command but Microsoft decided to move it to the Windows Toolbox (I guess they needed the extra money!). However, you...

use the sleep command (if it's on Windows you can use the _sleep utility that comes with CntlM) -

sleep 900

ctmshout was one of the first 'great' things about Control-M, hence it looks a little strange at first. The best way to think of it is as an address book that maps to email addresses and that, when you are more familiar with Control-M, can be used for more complicated messaging functions. Points - 1...

Usually a SNMP management application (e.g. ITO or Tivoli) must be customized so that it recognizes the Enterprise ID (1031) of CONTROL-M/EM alert. We went to 6.3.1 and it seems that Control-M used to use 954 as it's Enterprise number, but that should have changed to 1031 (but I have seen some sites...

The SNMP destination is configured by 4 parameters set on the Enterprise Manager (the main thing is to switch the messaging on - SnmpSendActive & SendSnmp - and tell EM what the name of the ITO host is - SnmpHost). You can get all EM Alerts sent across - you'll need to configure ITO templates to han...

That SQL should work. Try entering

select distinct ORDERNO from CMR_AJF

and see if your number is displayed.

You can still use Autoedit varibales in the body of the email, isn't that a better place to put the information?

If my memory serves correctly, detached was introduced for use with VAX/VMS plaforms.

A lot of people will be HP-UX.

Mainframe?

1314 is from Windows and is security related. Are you running the Agent as 'system' or via a specific userid. If you are using a specific userid you need to do the following - 1. Make sure the userid in question is a member of the Administrators Group on that server. 2. Via the Control Panel/Admin T...
