You are on the right track.
What you want to achieve is very similar to well documented HACMP
configuration. Just skip the fail-over details. In short:
- define three dsm.sys stanzas (you knew and have done it)
- define different httpport in each stanza (again you've done it)
- start each dsmcad (not dsmc sched) with -optfile or -server option - CLI
scheduler does not change web client settings. And also better let dsmcad
to manage the schedules once it is already started (it has lesser memory
footprint and would avoid memory leaks in dsmc sched, if any become
introduced).

        Subject:        web client question, any help would be appreciated :o).


Hey gang,

      I'm thinking about using the TSM web client for a customer of mine.
I
understand how to set up the "1581" port and what not. The only thing I'm
confused about is the following. On this one server they have two oracle
databases which we back up with two different server instances and one o/s
instance. To backup the o/s and the two databases the following TSM
schedulers must be running:

dsmc sched  = for the o/s backup
dsmc sched -server=db_instancename_1 = for the first database instance.
dsmc sched -server=db_instancename_2 = for the second database instance.

My question is when the client logs onto this web interface by going to
the
web address: "http://client_hostname:1581";. I'm assuming they will get the
node definitions of the default server stanza in "dsm.sys" which will give
them access to the o/s data only. Now what if they want the web interface
to have access to the other two instances/nodes as well? Which will give
them access to there database data. I'm guessing the option: "httpport" in
the dsm.sys file. This way have "1581" for the regular o/s, "1582" for the
second database instance and "1583" for the second database instance. This
way:

http://client_hostname:1581 = will give them access to the o/s data.
http://client_hostname:1582 = will give them access to there first database
instance information.
http://client_hostname:1583 = will give them access to there second
database instance information.

Am I right to assume this? Am I missing anything with the configuration of
this sort of environment. Any assistance or procedures would be
appreciated. Thanks!.
