Hi everyone,
Configuring multiple dsmcad instances on a single Linux host does not start automatically after reboots using the Traditional method: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/configuring-multiple-dsmcad-instances-single-linux-host
Configuring the client acceptor-managed method for Linux seems to be a better solution: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEQVQ_8.1.6/client/c_sched_autotasks.html
So this is what i did in short:
I have four instances configured to run on a single RHEL 7 host:
# cd /etc/rc.d/init.d
# ln -s /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/rc.dsmcad-weekly dsmcad-weekly
# ln -s /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/rc.dsmcad-monthly dsmcad-monthly
# ln -s /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/rc.dsmcad-yearly dsmcad-yearly
To enable the client acceptor to start automatically after a system restart, add the service as follows, at a shell prompt:
# chkconfig --add dsmcad
# chkconfig --add dsmcad-weekly
# chkconfig --add dsmcad-monthly
# chkconfig --add dsmcad-yearly
Completed the following steps to start the dsmcad and to run it at system start time:
# cd /etc/systemd/system/
# cp /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmcad.service .
# systemctl daemon-reload
# systemctl enable dsmcad.service
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/dsmcad.service to /etc/systemd/system/dsmcad.service.
# systemctl start dsmcad.service
# service dsmcad-weekly start
Starting dsmcad:[ OK ]
# service dsmcad-monthly start
Starting dsmcad:[ OK ]
# service dsmcad-yearly start
Starting dsmcad:[ OK ]
# service dsmcad status
dsmcad (pid 44662 44506 44401 43605) is running...
Now my concern:
Is there a document/link I can follow to configure multiple dsmcad instances on a single Linux host by configuring the client acceptor-managed method for weekly, monthly and yearly instances using systemctl so that it can start automatically after reboots?
