Tivoli Storage Manager for Windows Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User's Guide
You can override some of the options in your options file by entering them
with appropriate backup-archive commands.
Options are processed in the following order (precedence):
- Options defined on the server with server-enforced client options.
The server overrides client values.
- Options entered locally on the command line.
- Options defined on the server for a schedule using the options
parameters.
- Options entered locally in the options file.
- Options received from the server with client options not enforced by the
server. The server does not override client values.
- Default option values.
Tivoli Storage Manager also includes a group of client command options that
you can enter only on the command line with specific
commands. For a complete list of command line options, a description,
and where to go in this book for more information, see Chapter 10, Using Options with Commands.
To use an option with a command, enter a dash (-), the option name,
an equal sign (=), and the option parameters. For example,
dsmc incremental -domain=c:
For options that do not include parameters, enter a dash (-) and the
option name. For example,
dsmc incremental -quiet
- Note:
- Use a leading dash (-) to indicate that the following text is the name of an
option. If an object name begins with a dash, you must surround it in
either single quotes (') or double quotes ("). Most operating
system command line processors strip the quotes before submitting the command
line arguments to the Tivoli Storage Manager client application. In
such cases, using escape characters or doubling the quotes allows the client
to receive the quoted object name. In loop mode, surround such objects
in either single quotes (') or double quotes (").
You can enter the entire option name or its abbreviation. For
information about how to read the syntax diagrams, see "Reading Syntax Diagrams".
