Installing the 7.1.6 BA client on a RedHat box.

If I include TCPServeraddress in the dsm.opt file only, the system complains:

ANS1033E An invalid TCP/IP address was specified.

and ends...

If I add it to the dsm.sys file it continues on, but then I get a warning each time that says:

ANS1691I The option 'TCPSERVERADDRESS' that was found in the options file '/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys' at the line number: 2 is not supported and will be ignored by the client.

I have not installed a client on RedHat for a long time. Not clear what the issue is. is this a bug in the client version?

With it in dsm.sys
Code:
servername        phxrsp10
tcpport           1500
tcpserveraddress  10.96.13.131

# dsmc

Note the server has no issue getting to the tsm server, telnet server 1500 connects.

The profile has:
Code:
export DSM_DIR=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
export DSM_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys
export DSM_LOG=/var/adm/tsm

dsm.opt should have only this line:

servername phxrsp10

dsm.sys should have all this stuff:

servername phxrsp10
nodename phxrhi10
tcpserveraddress 10.96.13.131
tcpport 1500
commmethod tcpip
httpport 1581
inclexcl /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/filesystems.opt
largecommbuffers yes
maxcmdretries 4
passwordaccess generate
schedmode prompted
tcpbuffsize 32
tcpnodelay yes
tcpwindowsize 255
txnbytelimit 25600

there should be dsm.opt.smp and dsm.sys.smp sample files in the install dir, if you need another example.

Thanks for your response... Just getting back to this.

The issue is my configuration in profile. I was using:

export DSM_DIR=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
export DSM_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys
export DSM_LOG=/var/adm/tsm

Instead of

export DSM_DIR=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
export DSM_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.opt
export DSM_LOG=/var/adm/tsm

Using the latter, works without the errors. Using the former will make you think you are going crazy.

None of our existing Unix clients (50+) have used a configuration in profile before.
