Hi Gerhard,

Yes to both.  We are running two TSM 3740 servers on a single
machine.  We run both out of root uid (I think Cornell use an
alternative uid - please ask Paul Zarnowski about that) and it
works very well.

Files in each directory are as you expected but including the .lic
files; it does expect to find them there too.  We link the core
file to a much larger space and get the dump elsewhere.

(this procedure runs all the time and autoatically restarts server
if it falls over - providing the file /etc/... does not exist; we've
run this for years, more or less as it is now.  we start it in inittab
as respawn)

In the install directory you need to make some links :

% ls -l /usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv*

/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     system          7 Oct 25 08:46
/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv.SERVER_A -> dsmserv*
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     system          7 Oct 25 08:46
/usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin/dsmserv.SERVER_B -> dsmserv*

If you do this, linking to give two names to the server code, then
when you do a ps you can distinguish which instance is which (so you
can kill the correct one, should this be so needed ...).

I hope this helps and that I haven't missed any more out.

If you are still running ADSM rather than TSM you can still do it but
you need a lot more in the server config directories; I have deleted
all knowledge of that list I am afraid.
