You can request backup and archive services for multiple NetWare file servers.
To back up files on a remote NetWare file server, you must either:
Tivoli Storage Manager includes two options that relate to backing up and archiving files for remote servers:
If you do not store password information for local or remote servers in your client options file, Tivoli Storage Manager prompts you for that information when you issue commands to back up or archive files stored on those servers.
If you set nwpwfile to yes, the first time you issue a command to back up or archive files for a local or remote NetWare server, Tivoli Storage Manager encrypts the user ID and password you provide and stores that information in the TSM.PWD file in your installation directory. When you issue subsequent commands to back up or archive files for that server, Tivoli Storage Manager obtains the password information from that file instead of issuing a prompt. This is the default for this option. If you are running in loop mode, the password is committed to system memory. In loop mode, other commands will then access the ID/password from memory.
If you set nwpwfile to no, Tivoli Storage Manager prompts you for the user IDs and passwords for local or remote NetWare servers each time you issue a command to back up or archive files stored on those servers.
You can include volumes stored on remote NetWare file servers in your default client domain specified with the domain option in your client options file. For example, to specify the sys: volume on three remote NetWare file servers as well as all local volumes and the NDS, use:
domain all-local servb\sys: servc\sys: servd\sys:
You can also use the domain option with the incremental command to specify volumes stored on remote NetWare file servers. For example:
load dsmc incremental -domain="servb\sys: servc\sys:"
In addition, you can selectively back up or archive files stored on a remote server. For example:
load dsmc selective servb\sys:test/* load dsmc archive servc\sys:test2/proj1/
