Tivoli Storage Manager for Macintosh Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide
The virtualnodename option specifies the node name of
your workstation when you want to restore or retrieve files to a different
workstation.
When you use the virtualnodename option in your TSM User
Preferences file:
- You must specify the name you specified with the nodename
option in your TSM User Preferences file.
- Tivoli Storage Manager prompts for the password assigned to the node you
specify, if a password is required. If you enter the correct password,
you have access to all backups and archives that originated from the specified
node.
When connecting to a server, the client must identity itself to the
server. This login identification is determined in the following
ways:
- If the nodename and virtualnodename options are not
specified, you are prompted for a node name.
- If the virtualnodename option is specified, it cannot be the
same name as the name specified by the nodename option.
When the virtual node name is accepted by the server, a password is
required (assuming authentication is on), even if the
passwordaccess option is generate. Once a
connection to the server is established, then access is permitted to any file
backed up using this login ID.
Preferences File
Place this option in the TSM User Preferences file.
