I've never tried this on a LINUX client, but try putting the USERS option in the dsm.sys file:
USERS myname yourname etc For *X clients, USERS specifies who (besides root) can execute dsm or dsmc. It's documented in the "Using the UNIX clients" book. -----Original Message----- From: Gerald Wichmann [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, May 15, 2002 9:14 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: dsmc sched as another user On linux when starting the dsmc sched process you need to be root. Otherwise it says "ANS1817E Schedule function can only be run by a TSM authorized user." I'm trying to write a script that gets run by a non-root user to start the scheduler. Is it possible to get around this limitation somehow? I've tried chmod 4755 on dsmc and even that won't work. Looking up ANS1817E in the messages guide doesn't yield any useful information either.
