[Casper] Any Way to Monitor Time Machine Backup Status and Alert upon Failure?

[Nichols, Jared]

With a little googling, I found TMS ( http://fernlightning.com/doku.php?id=software:misc:tms)  You may be able to distribute that to your client computers and whip up some scripting to return statuses to you.

Help Please.  Hello people smarter than me;-)  We use External Hard drives and time machine to back up our users data.  Does anyone know of a way to get the computers to record the status of time machine back ups and notify me if a backup fails or a user has not backed up in a while.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it possible to Mass Edit Purchasing info? I have looked into it, but so far I cannot find a way to do it. Thanks!

Nope - I put it as a feature request a couple weeks ago.
