Hi all,

I've a customer who runs a 4.2.1 client
on Solaris (sorry, don't know which release).
When he tries to start dsmc he gets:


ANS1036S Invalid option 'COMMMETHOD' found in options file
'/export/opt/sparc/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys'
         at line number : 2
         Invalid entry : '  COMMmethod       TCPip'

His dsm.sys looks like this:

SERVERNAME              XXXXXXX
   COMMmethod           TCPip
   TCPPORT              1500
   TCPBuffSize          32
   txnbyte              25600
   tcpnodelay           Y
   TCPServeraddress     XXXXXXXXX
COMPRESSION             OFF
INCLEXCL                /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/inclexcl.lst
SCHEDLOGNAME            /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmsched.log
ERRORLOGNAME            /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmerror.log
SCHEDLOGRETENTION       10 D
ERRORLOGRETENTION       14 D
PASSWORDACCESS          GENERATE
MAILPROG                /usr/bin/mail root
USERS                   root
SCHEDMODe               PRompted
NODENAME                XXXXXXXXXX

When he swaps COMMMETHOD with TCPPORT, the client complains about
TCPPORT, so I know the client is using the right option file.

Has anyone seen this before? Or is this a bug? (The client
is only 2 weeks old) Or am I missing something obvious?

(I can't find anything in the list archives or the APAR
database)

Regards,

Alexander
