1. xhost +<TSM_node_IP_or_name> - as Ed pointed this is the most often the
reason. X does have some security at the end.
2. Ensure "telnet <X_server> 6000" from the node does connect and firewall
does not block it.
Or investigate usage of web client on those nodes.

Subject: dsm failed to start for system behind firewall
Hello *sm-ers,
TSM Server 4.1.1.0 and AIX 4.3.3
TSM Client 4.1.0.0 and AIX 4.3.3
In our environment we have multiple IP-domains seperated by a firewall. For
clients in the domain our TSM-server is in, there is no problem. For
clients
in domains behind firewall there is a problem with the GUI.
First we set the DISPLAY variable (export DISPLAY=ipadres:0), then
we give command 'dsm'. And after a while receive message 'Error: can't open
display'.
When we start a session with command 'dsmc', then we can do back-up and
restore without problems.
Now, we think that it have to do with the security, set on firewall ports.
Now we like to know what kind of data-type the commands dsm and dsmc are
using, so that we can do a request to open the ports for that kind of
data-traffic, so that we can use the GUI in case of a restore.
Thank you.
Brian.
