You can start the client scheduler automatically when you start your workstation. If the administrator has defined schedules for your node, starting the client scheduler permits you to automatically back up your workstation (or perform other scheduled actions). See Chapter 7, "Automating Tasks" for more information about the client scheduler.
You can also use the Tivoli Storage Manager Client Acceptor service to manage the scheduler. See Managing the Client Scheduler Using the Client Acceptor Service for more information.
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. See Mobile Dial-Up Support for more information.
