I have a question about how/where the TSM client stores the
"PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE" password on a W2K box.

If a W2K box access multiple TSM servers (e.g. by switching/updating the
DSM.OPT file), are the passwords to both TSM servers stored as seperate
registry keys so as to not step on each other ?

Or will this simply not work ?

My problem is this.

I need to move a node from one TSM server to another, via EXPORT NODE TO
SERVER. The data movement will take a while and this will be done during
the Thanksgiving holiday when everyone is gone, since I have to suspend
backups during the export.

I can remotely access and change the DSM.OPT file, and stop/start the
scheduler service (via the TSMManager Agent) but I would not be able to
answer the initial password prompt.

So, my thought was to connect to the new TSM server, right now, and set
the password, but go back to the old TSM server until next Wednesday.

Will this work or am I just "blowing smoke" ???
