Tivoli Storage Manager for NetWare Backup-Archive Client Installation and User's Guide
During installation, Tivoli Storage Manager provides a sample client option
file called dsm.smp. This file is a template
containing options required to establish client-server communications.
By default, Tivoli Storage Manager places the dsm.smp file
in SYS:\tivoli\tsm\client\ba or in another location you
select during installation.
To create and customize your own client options file:
- From a NetWare requestor, change your current directory to the Tivoli
Storage Manager installation directory.
- Copy the dsm.smp file to dsm.opt by
entering:
copy dsm.smp dsm.opt
- Start the NetWare text editor using the load edit
command. Use the NetWare load edit command with caution
because loss of data can occur. This text editor is normally used to
modify small text files. Do not edit large files with this
utility. Or you can use an editor from the NetWare requester
machine.
- Modify the required options according to your needs. The following
options are required to establish communication with a Tivoli Storage Manager
server:
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
|NODename ABNERYOUNG |
| |
| COMMmethod TCPIP |
| TCPPort 1520 |
| TCPServeraddress node.domain.company.com |
| |
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------------+
You can also specify the following types of options in your
dsm.opt file:
- Backup and archive processing options
- Restore and retrieve processing options
- Scheduling options
- Format and language options
- Command processing options
- Authorization options
- Error processing options
- Transaction processing option
- Web client options
See Chapter 9, Using Processing Options for more information about these options.
You may use some options only with commands. For more
information about these options, see Chapter 10, "Using Options with Commands".
