Appendix D of the TSM B/A client manual describes the steps necessary to 
configure TSM to backup cluster resources. I think you're
missing the step for the registry key replication.

Hi,

After setting up TSM on a windows cluster it seems that everytime a failover 
occurs the TSM service on the cluster does not
automatically start up. I have to manually log in start the cluster services 
through the cluster admin and then there is a password
mismatch so i have to reset the password in TSM and then restart the TSM 
cluster service via cmd line with

dsmc -optfile=g:\tsmconfig1

Everytime i resync the password on the tsm server for the active node , it 
ofcourse becomes out of sync with the passive node for
the next login. Seems the registry is not holding the password and every 90 
days this happens as the password expires. I cannot set
password expiration to zero as its against regulations. How can I have the 
registry hold these TSM passowrds?
Am i doing something wrong? The redbook does not speak on this so im kinda 
lost. Any ideas appreciated.Thanks.
