Tivoli Storage Manager for Macintosh Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide
The Tivoli Storage Manager Macintosh client is included on the desktop
client installation CD-ROM in the tsmcli/mac directory
structure.
You can display online startup information, product manuals, and
readmes. On a Web browser:
- Click File and then click Open File.
- Select the CD-ROM drive.
- Select the START.HTM file.
- Insert the CD-ROM into the CD-ROM drive.
- Double-click on the CD-ROM icon.
- Go to the clients:mac folder.
- Drag the file tsminst.hqx directly from the CD-ROM to your hard
drive. If you FTP the file from another workstation that has mounted
the CD-ROM, ensure it is transferred in ASCII mode.
- Locate a BinHex converter. The Tivoli Storage Manager Macintosh
installation file is stored in BinHex format. You must convert this
file before installation by using a BinHex translator. Programs such as
Stuffit Deluxe and Compact Pro can convert the files. Also, a freeware
program called BinHex 4.0 can be found at most major FTP sites
(including ftp.apple.com) and from online services, such as
CompuServe and America Online.
- Use the BinHex translator and choose the HQX file located on your hard
drive. Save the converted file to your hard drive. An
installation program called TSM Installer is created on your hard
drive after you finish the BinHex conversion.
- Double-click on the TSM Installer program
icon.
- When the Tivoli Storage Manager installation window appears, click on the
Continue button.
- When the Read Me file appears, read through the file to learn about recent
updates and product changes. You can print this file for later
reference by clicking on the print button. When you have finished
reading this file, click on the Continue button.
- The TSM Backup Standard Install window displays:
- Select Install to install the standard installation package
which includes the Tivoli Storage Manager Backup Program.
- Select Custom if you want to customize the standard
installation package.
- Decide where you want to store the Tivoli Storage Manager
files, and type the desired folder name in the installation folder field in
the installation window. Tivoli Storage Manager is the
default folder. If you choose a folder name that is not already listed,
a new folder is created for you. Click on the Install button
to begin the installation process.
- You are asked whether you want the Tivoli Storage Manager scheduler
daemon to start automatically when you start your system:
- If you select Yes Tivoli Storage Manager automatically places
an alias scheduler daemon in your startup folder.
- If you select No see Automating Tasks for more information about starting the Tivoli Storage
Manager scheduler after installation.
- Note:
- On Macintosh OS X, you will not be prompted to setup the daemon to start
automatically; see Automating Tasks for instruction on how to start the daemon automatically at
login time
- After installation completes you are asked if you want to quit, restart if
you are finished, or perform further installations. After installation,
see Configuring IBM Tivoli Storage Manager for required configuration tasks to perform before using
Tivoli Storage Manager.
To update a previously installed version of Tivoli Storage Manager,
navigate to the folder that contains the Tivoli Storage Manager folder, then
enter the name of the folder where the Tivoli Storage Manager files reside in
the installation folder field in the installation window. The installer
installs the updated files into this folder and overwrites the old Tivoli
Storage Manager files, but does not replace any existing preferences files
(except for TSM Backup Preferences-Sample). Click on the install button
to begin the automatic installation update process.
- Note:
- There is no automated process to assist with importing your options from a
previous version of Tivoli Storage Manager. It may be easiest to open
the old option file in a text editor then use the Configuration Assistant and
the Preference editor to set the options to the values in the old preference
file.
The Tivoli Storage Manager clients work in conjunction with the Tivoli
Storage Manager server. Contact your Tivoli Storage Manager
administrator to obtain client access to the Tivoli Storage Manager server, or
