Hi Andy!
Thank you very much for your reply!
Bummer... This requires me to alter (add the stanza) the dsm.sys which
was something I wanted to prevent for an occasional restore...
I didn't see this listed in the APAR, but that parameter also seems to
be incorrectly documented then, right?
Kindest regards,
Eric van Loon

Hi Eric,

Nope, -tcpserveraddress is also not valid from the command line.

Instead, use the -SERVERNAME option, which refers to a stanza in dsm.sys
that identifies the TSM server.

Andy

The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
The command line is your friend.
