Hi Eric

You should be able to define multiple servers within the same dsm.opt 
file. Every entry should start with SERVERName "your server".

Like this:

SERVERName Test1
TCPServeraddress 192.168.1.1

SERVERName Test2
TCPServeraddress 192.168.1.2

SERVERName Test3
TCPServeraddress 192.168.1.3

The first server entry will be the default. Creating a file like this on 
the server , your CM chap should be able to point to the different entries 
in your opt-file.

Best Regards

Subject
Content Manager on Windows - backing up to multiple TSM Servers






Hi,

Can anyone advise on how the TSM API client on a Content Manager on 
Windows
server can be configured to permit Content Manager to backup to multiple
TSM Servers?

Content Manager itself permits multiple 'server definitions' which seems 
to
replicate much of the information you would find in a dsm.opt file
(servername, tcpip address, tcpport, nodename, password). But it also only
permits you to identify a single dsm.opt file. I have a TSM background and
since this is a windows system, had expected to define multiple dsm.opt
files, one for each server. However it seems that only a single dsm.opt
file may be defined within Content Manager.

My Content Manager chap can see how he would configure Content Manager for
multiple TSM Servers - but I cannot see how I would configure the dsm.opt
in the api for multiple servers.
I'll stop repeating myself now. Any ideas/pointers?

Thanks,
