No.. normally when you first install the client on linux, even with passwordaccess generate you must initially run dsmc and perform a query or something such that it asks for your login and password. Once done, it saves the password in an encrypted file and won't ask you again in the future.
I'm trying to automate the install and start the dsmc process without having to have some user start it once to set the password. Isn't there a way to run dsmc and specify the password from the commandline e.g. if you have a ksh/perl script that calls dsmc in it such that you can specify the password as an argument to perform an operation? E.g. I want a script to do a "dsmc I" but I also don't want my client to be in passwordaccess generate mode. With dsmadmc you can specify a login and password as argument (e.g. "dsmadmc -id=admin -pa=admin 'q stg'").. I want to do something similar with dsmc..

"q sess" if I remember correctly this can be done but I'm having trouble finding it in the redbooks.. Gerald Wichmann Sr. Systems Development Engineer Zantaz, Inc. 925.598.3099 w 408.836.9062 c
