The passwords (shown here as xxxxxxxx) are encrypted in the file. Save the file to the same directory as the executable and close it.

The command also generates the following line in the dsmsta.opt file:

SERVERNAME tsmsrver

See “The Storage Agent Options File” on page 46 and “The Device Configuration File for the Storage Agent” on page 49 for details about these files.

Step 2.2 IBM Tivoli Storage Manager Server: Defining the Storage Agent and Configuring Devices

The following provides the instructions that you need to perform on the Tivoli Storage Manager server. If further explanation is required, see the Administrator’s Guide.

1.If you have not set up Enterprise management (server-to-server communication) on this server, you can do so now with the following commands:

set servername tsmsrver set serverpassword not4u

set serverhladdress tsmsrver.tucson.ibm.com set serverlladdress 1502

set crossdefine on

These commands establish the server’s name, password, and TCP/IP address and port, and allow other servers to define a connection on this server. Replace the example values with values from the server configuration information worksheet.

Note: The Server Password Set status in the QUERY STATUS output must be equal to YES. You set the server password by issuing the SET SERVERPASSWORD command from a Tivoli Storage Manager administrative command line. See the example above.

2.If you are using an ACSLS-managed external library, install Gresham EDT or other middleware that enables an external library. For installation information about Gresham EDT, see the Gresham documentation.

3.For each client that you want to enable SAN data transfer, define the client’s storage agent to the Tivoli Storage Manager server as if the storage agent is a server. You must use the same name and password that you set for the storage agent when you installed it on the client system. The DEFINE SERVER command must be issued from the Tivoli Storage Manager server that will manage the client’s data. For example:

define server storagnt serverpassword=fun4me hladdress=agent.tucson.ibm.com lladdress=1500 validateprotocol=all

Note: The VALIDATEPROTOCOL parameter in the previous example is optional. This parameter determines whether a cyclic redundancy check should be performed to validate data on all metadata transferred between the storage agent and the Tivoli Storage Manager server. See the Administrator’s Reference for additional information about the DEFINE SERVER command. See the Administrator’s Guide for additional information about data validation.

The storage agent must also be defined to the library manager. It needs to be able to contact the library manager directly when making mount requests. If the storage agent is only defined to the client, it will attempt to use information
