The storage agent is the same install software as the server, you just select a different option when installing it.

For a first time installation or a new release go to Passport Advantage® at: http://www.ibm.com/software/lotus/passportadvantage/. Passport Advantage is the only site that you can download a licensed package file from.

For the latest information, updates, and maintenance fixes, go to the Tivoli Storage Manager support site: http://www.ibm.com/support/entry/portal/Overview/Software/Tivoli/Tivoli_Storage_Manager.

Yes, it does!

Remember to install both software packages on the client.

  • BA-Client and
  • Storage-Agent
Use different TCP-Ports for the Client and the Storage-Agent, because it seems that they use the same IP-Address, when they will be installed on the same machine.

The Communication-Method between BA-Client and Storage-Agent can be "TCP/IP" OR "shared memory".

Important for your configuration in the BA-Client are the following options in your dsm.opt or dsm.sys-file:

ENABLELanfree YES
LANFREECommmethod TCPip
LANFREETCPServeraddress stagent_address (default is localhost)
LANFREETCPPort 1510 (you can choose another port, but this value must match the port, you configure in the dsmserv.opt of your storage-agent)

Output from the storage-agent manual:
As in prior releases, COMMMETHOD TCPIP specifies that only IPv4 is used. When you
configure the storage agent by using the DSMSTA SETSTORAGESERVER command, use
addresses that correspond to the communications method used by the
backup-archive client.
