Lan,

As much as GUIs sometimes make things easier to work with, it is often
much easier to work with the raw options file in cases such as this.

It is likely that your options file is located in the same directory as
the TSM client GUI executable, dsm.exe. Typically this is in C:\Program
Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient. However, if you are launching the GUI from a
shortcut, check the shortcut properties to verify the path.

In that same path is probably a file called "dsm.opt". What are the
contents of that file? Also, what drives/directories do you really want to
back up?

Regards,

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
"Good enough" is the enemy of excellence.

        Subject:        Re: how to modify the domain list in TSM5.2 client
GUI


Arnaud,

I was wondering if I can modify the domain list. This may sound stupid.
How
did the domain list created at first place.
Because my domain list showed wrong path to certain directory. For
instance, for directory wwwroot which is under my c:\inetpub\wwwroot\,
it was \\MyPCName\wwwroot in the domain list. And I kept getting "invalid
path specified" error message.

under the preferences, backup tab, there is no option for editing.
please advice me.
Thanks
Lan
