Initial TSM Setup
This document describes TSM client backups only as used with the
optional TSM Client Backup Feature for SBAdmin Network Edition. If
using SBAdmin TSM Edition, refer to the
SBAdmin TSM Edition User
Guide
instead.
TSM Server
The TSM Server software must be at level 5.2 or later. Refer to the TSM documentation for instructions on
checking and updating the TSM server.
SBADMIN Management Class
Before any backup may be performed to TSM, you must define a new management class on the TSM
server called SBADMIN. All SBAdmin backups will be stored under this management class. The
management class must be defined to disallow versioning of backup objects. The management class must
be created using the TSM Integrated Solutions Console or using the following command within dsmadmc:
DEFINE MGMTCLASS domain_name policy_set SBADMIN
Next, you must turn off file versioning in the BACKUP copygroup of the management class. This is done
by setting the number of versions of each file to be kept to “1” and days to retain inactive versions to “0”:
DEFINE COPYGROUP domain_name policy_set SBADMIN TYPE=BACKUP \
DESTINATION=backup_pool VEREXISTS=1 RETonly=0
Once the copygroup and management class are defined we need to activate the policyset with the
command:
ACTIVATE POLICYSET domain_name policy_set
TSM API Client
The TSM API Client software is normally installed on each node when the TSM Backup/Archive Client
software is installed. This is required by SBAdmin. To check if the API client is installed:
On AIX: Ensure the tivoli.tsm.client.api.32bit fileset is installed at level 5.2 or later:
lslpp –l tivoli.tsm.client.api.32bit
On Linux: Ensure the TIVsm-API package is installed at level 5.2 or later:
rpm –qa | grep TIV
On Solaris: Ensure the TIVsmCapi package is installed at level 5.2 or later:
pkginfo –l TIVsmCapi
