Tivoli Installation for Linux Server

Filed under: Personal, IT in ME, UNIX

I had a big headache with this IBM Linux Machine, the DSM installation was not configured properly..

Found 3 important files was missing, dsm.sys , dsm.opt & inclexcl .

Copied  file from working server to /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin

Configure dsm.sys to point to correct dsmerror.log & scheduler.log & normally it should be there in /var/adm/tsm. If the files are not there, just create em.

#touch dsmerror.log

#touch scheduler.log

#chmod 755 <files.log>

Issue this command #dsmc q sess to test the scheduler.

Now creating the script file :-

/etc/rc2.d 

#cat > /etc/rc2.d/S23Tivoli

/usr/bin/dsmc sched > /dev/null 2>&1 &

<control+D>

<control+D>

# chmod 744 /etc/rc2.d/S23Tivoli

# /etc/rc2.d/S23Tivoli start

Once that is done , issue the command to startup the script

#S23Tivoli start

# ps -ef| grep dsm

you should see /usr/bin/dsm is running :)

Now enable the backup for the server & it is done !! :) But it took me 2 days to clean the whole mess.It was a huge mess :( Anyway happy that it is running fine now, worth the effort :)
