DSM.SYS Example

[alyeska]

Can someone post a example of a DSM.SYS file for Linux with the correct syntax for "domain" and "includes" and "excludes". I'm just having a heck of a time figuring this out.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,



what do you want to backup? I have this example for you ... Some entries may seem to be "doubled" - like

include /whatever/.../*
include /whatever/*

but this way it always works ....

as I use only one node per machine I have all entries in dsm.sys and my dsm.opt is just servername XXXXX

you can split it to have communication settings in the dsm.sys and excludes/includes in dsm.opt - your choice

so the example:

dsm.sys:

SErvername  TSMSRV
   COMMmethod         TCPip
   TCPPort            1500
   TCPServeraddress   tsmsrv.xxx.xxx.xxx

SCHEDMODE polling
NODEname YYYYYY
PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE

COMMRESTARTDURATION 20
SCHEDLOGRETENTION 3
users root

SCHEDLOGNAME "/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmsched.log"
CHANGINGRETRIES 1
errorlogretention 3
resourceutilization 10

domain ALL-LOCAL

*NFS mounts
domain /mnt/machineA
domain /mnt/machineB

virtualmountpoint /var/spool/cron

exclude.fs /var

exclude.dir /mnt/machineA/folderA
exclude.dir /proc
exclude.dir /dev
exclude.dir /mnt/backup/restore
exclude.dir /root

EXCLUDE "/tmp/.../*"
EXCLUDE "/usr/src/.../*"
EXCLUDE "*error_log*"
exclude /www/.../*[-_.]log*
exclude /mnt/*-etc/at.deny

exclude /.../log/.../*
exclude /.../logs/.../*

include /var/spool/cron/.../*
include /var/spool/cron/*

include /.../conf/.../* configs

include /mnt/backup/.../* client_default
include /mnt/backup/* client_default

include /mnt/backup/.../*-mysql-dump-* mysqldump

include /lib/*
include /lib/.../*

include /boot/*
include /boot/.../*

Then the dsm.opt file is

servername tsmsrv

Hope it helps

Hi,

why do you have duplicit TCPServeraddress in the dsm.sys? (FQDN and IP)

Harry

 

[veera4373]

Hi Harry.. Thanks for the replay.. but i commented the FQDM once and check for dsmc and commented the IP and check for dsmc... now i get the following error...

[root@mcl78 bin]# dsmc
ANS1036S The option '#TCPSERVERADDRESS' or the value supplied for it is not valid. It was found in options file ''
at line number: 21
The complete entry: ' #TCPServeraddress node.domain.company.COM'


ANS1038S Invalid option specified


Can you please clear me the structuere of FQDN...

default vaule is node.domain.company.COM
please clear me what each represent....

thanks in advance..

Hi,

oh - now I can see it - in the dsm.sys (dsm.opt) comment is made by "*" not "#"
