Device Configuration File for the Storage Agent

default value of 0 prevents examining client sessions for insufficient throughput. Throughput is computed by adding send and receive byte counts and dividing by the length of the session. The length does not include time spent waiting for media mounts and starts at the time a client sends data to the server for storage. The minimum value is 0; the maximum is 99999999.

THROUGHPUTTimethreshold minutes

Specifies the threshold for examining client sessions and cancelling them if the data throughput threshold is not met (see THROUGHPUTDatathreshold). This threshold does not include time spent waiting for media mounts. The time threshold starts when a client begins sending data to the server for storage (as opposed to setup or session housekeeping data). The default value of 200 prevents examining client sessions for low throughput. The minimum value is 0; the maximum is 99999999.

USELARGEBUFFERS yesno

Specifies that large buffers are used for client-server communications. The default of yes specifies that large buffers are used; no specifies that they are not used.

The Device Configuration File for the Storage Agent

The device configuration file for the storage agent includes information on the storage agent and information about the Tivoli Storage Manager server with which the storage agent communicates. The file is typically named devconfig and resides with the storage agent program at this location: /usr/tivoli/tsm/StorageAgent/ bin. The DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command normally generates the contents of the file, and you can also use the command to add information to the file.

Typical contents of the device configuration file are as follows:

SET STANAME storagnt

SET STAPASSWORD fun4me

SET STAHLADDRESS agent.tucson.ibm.com

DEFINE SERVER tsmsrver serverpassword=not4u

HLADDRESS=tsmsrver.tucson.ibm.com LLADDRESS=1502

In this example, storagnt is the name of the storage agent and tsmserver is the name of the Tivoli Storage Manager server.

The following describes the contents of the file:

SET STANAME

Sets the name of the storage agent. The name must be the same as the name that was used to define the storage agent as a server to the Tivoli Storage Manager server.

SET STAPASSWORD

Sets the password of the storage agent. The password must be the same as the password that was used when defining the storage agent as a server to the Tivoli Storage Manager server. The password is encrypted.

SET STAHLADDRESS

Sets the TCP/IP address of the storage agent.
