Determining the status of a scheduled event

The server maintains a record of all scheduled events. The records are useful for managing IBM Storage Protect schedules on numerous client computers.

Perform the following steps to view the event records on a server:

1. Issue the QUERY EVENT command.
2. Issue the following query to view all of the event results for the previous day:

   query event * * begindate=today-1 begintime=00:00:00
   enddate=today-1 endtime=23:59:59

3. Issue the following query to limit the query results to exception cases:

   query event * * begindate=today-1 begintime=00:00:00
   enddate=today-1 endtime=23:59:59 exceptionsonly=yes

What to do next

The query results include a status field that gives a summary of the result for a specific event. By using the format=detailed option you can also see the result of an event that is the overall return code passed back by the client. See the QUERY EVENT command for scheduled and completed events.
