Install standalone admin command line

[treaclesponge]

Is it possible to install the dsmadmc as a standalone option on a client PC without setting up a opt file and making the node known to TSM etc?

I ask as it would be nice to be able to query the server without having to remote to it all the time!

I assuming you want to install this on a Windows desktop. You need to have a working TSM node that is on a Windows-based platform - copy these two files from the system32 folder:

tsmutil1.dll
dsmntapi.dll

and place these in the system32 folder of the target desktop or PC.

Now, copy the dsmadmc.exe and dscenu.txt file from the node's c:\Program Files\Tivoli\TSM\baclient directory and place these files on the SAME (you may have to create these directories) folder on the target desktop/PC.

Next create a dsm.opt which has one entry: tcpserveraddress <your_TSM_server>. The OPT file goes into the same directory as dsmadmc.exe.

Your done.
