TSM SQL TDP Better Backup Script

On a call today I had an admin complain that the TSM SQL TDP was issuing failed backup errors when the script encountered a database that was offline. So I asked if he had searched Google for an alternate script and he had not. I did a quick query and found this nice batch file that appears to do exactly what is needed. The reader on the site commented that the script did not work on his SQL cluster. Does anyone have a similar script that would work on a cluster? Or could you modify this script to work in a cluster environment? The link to the script is provided below.
