Bayern Munich started the defence of their DFB-Pokal title with a 3-1 win over Augsburg in the second round on Wednesday.
Philipp Lahm and Julian Green gave the hosts a comfortable half-time lead at the Allianz Arena.
Manuel Neuer saved a Ja-Cheol Koo penalty shortly before Thomas Muller sent a penalty over at the other end.
Ji Dong-Won brought Augsburg back into the game midway through the second half, making for an interesting final 25 minutes, but David Alaba settled any nerves in stoppage time with Bayern's third.
Schalke were also made to sweat, despite appearing to be cruising into the last 16 in Nuremberg, eventually beating the second-division side 3-2.
Yevhen Konoplyanka's brace and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar's goal gave the Royal Blues a 3-0 lead at the break, but two goals from Tobias Kempe made things interesting in the second half.
Meanwhile, last year's beaten finalists Borussia Dortmund needed penalties to get past Union Berlin.
Thomas Tuchel's men took the lead through a Michael Parensen own-goal, but Steven Skrzybski levelled late on for the guests.
There were no goals in extra-time, but Union missed their three penalties, with Ousmane Dembele, Matthias Ginter and Mario Gotze slotting home theirs to take the Westphalians through.
Extra-time was also needed to separate Bundesliga rivals Cologne and Hoffenheim after Benjamin Hubner and Marcel Risse scored in normal time.
The Bundesliga's top-scorer Anthony Modeste then earned Cologne a 2-1 victory in the first minute of extra time.
Elsewhere, Darmstadt and Mainz followed Bayer Leverkusen and Freiburg out of the cup with defeats to lower-league opposition.
Fourth-division Astoria Walldorf - the lowest-ranked team still in the competition - embarrassed Darmstadt with a 1-0 win, thanks to Nico Hillenbrand's effort after half an hour.
Second-division Furth scored a last-minute winner against Mainz, who had led up to the 79th minute through Jhon Cordoba's header.
Finally, Wolfsburg put their Bundesliga worries to one side with a 1-0 win at Heidenheim, thanks to Mario Gomez's goal just after half-time, while Hannover put six past Fortuna Dusseldorf, who found little consolation in scoring one.
