API if not already installed on the system, or upgrade the software to the latest level as necessary. The latest levels can be downloaded from the IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Web site at www.ibm.com/software/sysmgmt/products/ support/IBMTivoliStorageManager.html. If you are using the storage agent to support multiple clients, you must install or upgrade the client and API software on each client that will be supported.

2.Be sure you have the information recorded on the forms in “Configuration Information Worksheets” on page 13. This information is required in this procedure.

3.Modify the Tivoli Storage Manager options file (dsm.sys). For information about the dsm.opt and dsm.sys files, see the Backup-Archive Clients Installation and User’s Guide.

a.Locate the options file and open it. The file could be located in one of several places, such as the installation directory, or pointed to by an environment variable.

b.Specify the Tivoli Storage Manager server name. This information will come from the client system and server system configuration-information worksheets. For example:

servername tsmsrver

c.Specify the communications method between the client and server.
