You can start the client scheduler automatically when you start your workstation.
If the Tivoli® Storage Manager administrator has defined schedules for your node, starting the client scheduler permits you to automatically back up your workstation (or perform other scheduled actions).
You can also use the Tivoli Storage Manager Client Acceptor service to manage the scheduler.
Tivoli Storage Manager supports
remote network connections to the server. With a remote network connection,
mobile users no longer need to dial-in to their company network when
a backup is scheduled to run. Tivoli Storage Manager automatically
establishes a connection before the scheduled backup occurs. If the
connection fails, Tivoli Storage Manager reestablishes
the connection before attempting the backup.
