Shared mem client on tsm 5.5 x86_64 linux

[spidee]

Hi there,

Having loads of trouble getting shared mem client (it's faster right?) connection on tsm 5.5 x86_64 running rhel 4.5 x86_64. Is this type of connection supported in TSM? The docs configuration allows all the shared mem options but client fails with :

ANS1473E Session rejected: TCP/IP connection failure for Shared Memory

Could anyone suggest anything ?

Cheers !

Yes, this connection supported TSM.
You must configure TSM server and Client to use SHAREdmem.
Also see Client user gude (you can change default kernel parameter MSGMNI).
example of configuration:
Client dsm.sys:
COMMMethod SHAREdmem
shmport 1510
and comment
*COMMMethod TCPIP

Server dsmserv.opt:
COMMMethod SHAREdmem
shmport 1510
Don't remove anything.

After you've made the comments to dsm.sys and dsmserv.opt you'll need to restart the TSM Client (to release the TCP port) and the TSM Server (to initialize the Shared Memory communication). When a node is connected to TSM you can recognize it as shared memory (ShMem) in actlog or 'q se' :

06/30/08 01:49:18 ANR0400I Session 11472 started for node FACE_TSMCL
(AIX) (ShMem). (SESSION: 11472)
