Bill,

Thank you. By the time I got this message I had alareddy figured it out for 
myself, but then there is another error:

G40:root:/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/informix/bin> tdpipswd
***************************************************************
*       TDP for Informix Backup                               *
* Password file initialization program                        *
*>> this must be run by the ROOT user if updating the value <<*
***************************************************************
Enter your current password:
Enter your new password:
*** Server signon failed: ANS1353E (RC53)   Session rejected: Unknown or 
incorrect ID entered

The TDP for Informix Installation Guide also says that I have to register the 
TDP at the TSM Server but it must have a different name from the BAClient. Do 
you know how can I register the TDP from the AIX (to register the BAC is not a 
problem).

Thanks.

You need to add to the server stanza in the DSM.SYS

PASSWORDACCESS GENERATE

The default is PROMPT and the Informix agent wants GENERATE.

Subject: TDP for Informix password register fail


Hi list,

I am trying to register the root password from an AIX 4.3.3 server where I
have just installed TDP for Informix 4.1 using the tdpipswd program. The
process is failing eith the following error message:

*** Signon failed: dsm.sys option PasswordAccess = generate required.

Any ideas ?

The TSM server hostname and IP address are already informed at the dsm.opt
and dsm.sys files.

Thanks in advance.
