Error configuring SCHEDLOGMAX & ERRORLOGMAX

[ocarles]

Hi:
Using ba client 6.2.2 for Linux on a Suse 10 Linux I have problems with next configuration:

/etc/profile:

DSM_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys
DSM_DIR=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
DSM_LOG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
LANG=en_US
LC_ALL=en_US
export DSM_CONFIG DSM_DIR DSM_LOG LANG LC_ALL

dsm.sys

SERVERNAME lnxclient
COMMMETHOD TCPip
TCPPORT 1500
TCPSERVERADDRESS tsmserver1
MANAGEDSERVICES schedule webclient
PASSWORDACCESS generate
SCHEDLOGMAX 100
ERRORLOGMAX 500

The error that I get with this configuration (about SCHEDLOGMAX and ERRORLOGMAX):

sol:/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin # dsmc
ANS1036S The option 'SCHEDLOGMAX' or the value supplied for it is not valid. It was found in options file '/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys'
at line number: 24
The complete entry: 'SCHEDLOGMAX 100'

ANS1038S Invalid option specified
ANS1036S The option 'ERRORLOGMAX' or the value supplied for it is not valid. It was found in options file '/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys'
at line number: 25
The complete entry: 'ERRORLOGMAX 500'

I also can't run dsmcad (same error and dsmcad doesn't run).
Commenting SCHEDLOGMAX and ERRORLOGMAX, I get this output, but dsmc connection is stablished, and also dsmcad is started:

sol:/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin # dsmc

I need to have configured schedlog and errorlog sizing.

Any help will be welcomed.

These are strange errors. Are you sure you have authorization to read/write to these files?

 

[ocarles]

humm, I have installed ba client with root user, following steps from installing doc, sucessfully.
Maybe authorization with dsm.sys is the problem. By now, I remember that when I modify dsm.sys using vi, I have to save with w!, cause it is readonly.
I will check it.

Many thanks for your tip

Regards

Hi,

DSM_CONFIG variable should point to dsm.opt, not dsm.sys
Create new file /opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.opt with this line (only) in it

SERVERNAME sol

And modify the DSM_CONFIG (and your /etc/profile)

/etc/profile:
DSM_CONFIG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.opt
DSM_DIR=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
DSM_LOG=/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin
LANG=en_US
LC_ALL=en_US
export DSM_CONFIG DSM_DIR DSM_LOG LANG LC_ALL

[cheffern]

do you mean to be using this instead?

SCHEDLOGRETENTION 90 D
ERRORLOGRETENTION 90 D (D for Days)

 

[ocarles]

Hi Harry,
What about other parameters (TCPPORT, COMMMETHOD, SCHEDLOGMAX, etc)?
Should I configure them on dsm.opt?

Oscar

 

[ocarles]

yes cheffern, there are two config parameters to manage logs by size: SCHEDLOGMAX, ERRORLOGMAX

Oscar

 

[cheffern]

dsm.opt on Unix is only SErvername - everything else you mentioned goes in dsm.sys file.

 

[ocarles]

I didn't know that.
Thanks cheffern for your help.

I will reconfigure ba installation

What it works for me:

/etc/profile
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.opt

dsm.opt
SERVERNAME lnxclient

dsm.sys
SERVERNAME lnxclient
COMMMETHOD TCPip
TCPPORT 1500
TCPSERVERADDRESS tsmserver1
MANAGEDSERVICES schedule webclient
PASSWORDACCESS generate
SCHEDLOGMAX 100
ERRORLOGMAX 500

Note that SERVERNAME should be configured on both files (dsm.sys and dsm.opt)

Thanks for your assistance!
