Hi,
there is serious problem on HP-UX ADSM clients using the
default client user options file dsm.opt.

After installation dsm.opt is placed in /usr/adsm filessytem.
At startup the client never finds it there:
instead it looks for dsm.opt file in /usr/lpp/adsm/bin.
(where it is located on AIX client by the way).

To make use of dsm.opt you have to place it in /usr/lpp/adsm/bin
or specify in variable DSM_CONFIG the path and filename for
root user.

The problem is passed to IBM.
