See the <a href="http://blackcat.ca/svn/trunk/tsmdailyrep/tsm_report.txt">sample report</a> for an idea of that this program does.

TSM is a data management solution that is offered by IBM. It&rsquo;s a huge, sprawling, flexible monstrosity that work perfectly...  if you watch it and keep it fed and watered.  TSM is also very scriptable and extensible. 

This program attempts to give a TSM administrator a daily report that contains all the things that need to be periodically looked at.  Wherever possible it will offer advice on how to fix problems found or attempt to resolve them itself.  It will generate a nice email with the report and will modify the subject to flag and problems found so that you know when it&rsquo;s really important to have a peek inside the report.

If you know of anything that you&rsquo;d like added, you find a bug, or just can&rsquo;t get it to run for you, please email me at <a href="mailto:paudley@blackcat.ca" rel="nofollow" >paudley@blackcat.ca</a> and I&rsquo;ll see what I can do to help.  Please Note:  I no longer have regular access to a TSM system for testing, if you&rsquo;d like troubleshooting I can probably work something remotely.

Thanks to the many people that have passed along code or suggestions and to the <a href="http://www.wellcome.ac.uk/" rel="nofollow" >Wellcome Trust</a> for funding my time at the <a href="http://blackcat.ca/lifelines/bioinform001">University of Dundee</a>.

It's been a while since I've updated my site; work has been nuts and free time at a premium.   After my <a href="http://cogneto.com" rel="nofollow"  title="Cogneto">company</a> adopted a new site based on <a href="http://www.wordpress.com" rel="nofollow" title="WordPress: Free Blog Tool and Weblog Platform" >WordPress</a>, I was so taken by just how good content management software has become recently that I decided to take a whack at converting the over 10k lines of hand written <a href="http://www.php.net" rel="nofollow" title="PHP: Hypertext Preprecessor" >PHP</a> and ::wikipedia(Perl,Perl):: over to something more flexible.  Please be patient if things are broken - I'm slowly posting all the old entries to the new site.
