Quick Start


Chapter 2. Customizing Your Tivoli Storage Manager System

At this point you have installed, set up, and started the Tivoli Storage Manager server, and administrative and backup-archive clients. This chapter describes customizing Tivoli Storage Manager by doing the following:

The customization described here does not include all Tivoli Storage Manager functions. However, it does provide a flexible, powerful system that can meet most customers' needs. If the server that you have just installed will be part of a network of TSM servers, your customization tasks may be affected. For example, your server may receive configuration information from a server that is designated as a configuration manager. This information could include objects such as administrator definitions, policy definitions, and server definitions. On the other hand, your server may be the configuration manager, and your definitions will be provided to a network of managed servers. In addition, you may have to define one or more other servers to your server. For details, see Administrator's Guide.

The TSM server must be running to perform the tasks described here. Start the server if it is not running (see Starting and Stopping the Server for the procedure).
