Each route has to start from some well known point and follow the signs
further.
The starting point for TSM server is fixed name file (dsmserv.dsk) in
predefined directory (directory where the binary resides). The file
contents serve as directions for the next hop and first DB volume accessed
provides information for the further route.
Same is happening on OS bootstrap process - boot information is always
looked at predefined place (boot list) for the first step (boot device)
and only afterwards all is read and known.

Is dsmserv.dsk the only place TSM uses to locate DB and log disk on
startup?
