Hi Finn,

If you've installed from the flat TDS CD's you won't find the TDS for SMA
(Storage Management Analysis) bits (i.e. guides) on there - you'll need a
separate CD, which will have the Decision Support Loader (a special
application which pulls data from the TSM servers' databases and populates
an RDBMS) and sql schema's to build the tables into the database.

I did install this and had it working last year (memory's a bit sketchy
now, but I recall it was a bit of a faff), getting all kinds of stats from
our TSM servers, but I think that the packaging has now changed. In our
latest CD bundle from Tivoli we got a 'Tivoli Storage Resource Reporting'
CD which I believe may contain what you are looking for... It may be worth
looking at service.boulder.ibm.com ftp site too as I remember there to be
some folders on there which may have what you're looking for... There's
also some Redbooks - Tivoli Storage Manager Reporting - SG24-6109-00, and
lots of installation documentation on the CD.

Hope this helps,

Rgds,

David McClelland

Subject:  TDS v2.1.1 installation



Hi,

I have just installed TDS v2.1.1 on a WinNT system as we want to test some
different reporting tools for our TSM servers and I want to know if I am
right to think that I need a discovery guide to get my reporting on the
way?
Is a discovery guide like a template for the TSM database? From that point
on I can start filling cubes?

On the CD I have just installed I cannot find any discovery guides...
