Hi,

I am having a little trouble getting the client error log set up
correctly for non-administrators on MacOS X servers. I have defined
ERRORLOGName in  /Library/Preferences/Tivoli Storage Manager/TSM System
Preferences file. As it should this definition overrides any
environmental export of DSM_LOG by the non-administrator user. However
when the dsmerror.log is written by the TSM scheduler the mode on the
file is 644 and owned by root:wheel. So when the non-administrator user
invokes DSMC they get the infamous 'ANS0110E Unable to open error log
file '/path/to/dsmerror.log' for output" problem.

If leave the path undefined in the dsm.sys the export of DSM_LOG for
each user works correctly. But I want all system invoked TSM logs
written to the hosts central log path, and any user TSM logs written to
the path of there choice. I just can't seem to find a way to do it.

Can someone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks,

Greg
