AIX Server : TSM 3.7.2
API Client   :          3.7.0
TSM Client :           3.7.1
TDP for Oracle :     PTF IP21890


Hi All,

I have comm method TCPIP working backing up oracle 8.0.5 dbf's or databases
to TSM server 3.7.2. For eval purposes, the TSM server and oracle database 
reside
on the same rs6k therefore I'd like to exploit comm method SHARED MEMORY.

I'm able to get shared memory to work for everything except TDP for Oracle
using 32bit. (The error messages I get are in the subject)

All doc mentions that AT LEAST one of four conditions must be met in order to
avoid shared memory communication errors.

1) Use PASSWORDACCESS generate to exercise the trusted Communications
     agent DSMTCA. **** In my case, TDP for Oracle requires PASSWORD
     ACCESS prompt as defined on page 19 of  SH26-4061-01 Installing the
     Oracle Backup Agent on AIX 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3. the password utility aobpswd
     requires PROMPT to the best of my knowledge so no luck here ****

2) The client user ID must be root.......... this is not applicable to our shop
3) The client and server user ID must be the same.... also not applicable here.

4) Change the permissions and ownership for ?????????? The manual
     shows examples of /usr/tivoli/tsm/bin/dsmadm and dsmadmc and then
     chown root.system and chmod u+s.

     My question is......... which API program is being invoked during the TDP
     for Oracle backup effort which doesn't have the appropriate authority? I'm
     pretty sure its not dsmadmc. I believe its libApiDS.a but when I change the
     ownership/permissions.... is still fails.


Any help would be appreciated....tia.....Mark
