Matt,

What version of the client are you intalling?  I had the same problem with
earlier
versions of the V4.1 Windows client.  I think the bug was fixed at PTF
level
4.1.2.14 or higher.

Subject:  win2000 Clusternode yes parameter


Hello People,


We have a problem installing the TSM scheduler service on a win2000
cluster.

There are 2 nodes connected to some clusterdisk.

We have installed a scheduler service on each node to backup the local
disk.
This service works fine.

We have also installed a scheduler service on each local node pointing to a
dsm.opt file on the clusterdisk. This dsm.opt file has the option
clusternode yes in it.

The service was installed with the /custernode:yes and /clustername etc..
switches.

When we run

dsmc -optfile=(path to clusterdisk dsm.opt)

The client starts ok.

If we try to start the scheduler service for the clusterdisk from the
services control panel applet the service fails to start. The service
returns no error, but if we look in the dsmerror.log it reports that
clusternode yes is an invalid option.

The actual error message is similar to;

ANS1107E  '-Clusternode='yes'' invalid option / value pair in dsm.opt file.

Has anyone got any ideas?

I have talked with the guy having the problem (He's trying to get this
installed and working over in Washington US, I'm in the UK..) and as far as
we can over the phone he has everything installed and setup correctly.

He's hoping to catch a plane home later..

Matt.
