I was not involved in the development of the Admin Center, so I am not the final authority on the subject. Having said that, my understanding of the Admin Center is that the wizards used for some tasks -- creating nodes or storage pools, for two examples -- are not intended to provide a comprehensive set of all available options for that task; rather, they are intended to guide you through the most basic (or essential) facets of the task at hand. If you take a look at the REGISTER NODE syntax, you will see that there are a LOT of options that are not presented in the wizard. For another example, the DEFINE STGPOOL command contains a lot of options that are not present in the create storage pool wizard. The properties notebooks, which afford access to the more advanced (*) options, can be used to modify the object after it is created. For the specific question at hand, the answer is to delete the administrator (if you don't want it) after creating the node; or to use the CLI, as you've already mentioned.
(*) Of course, we may differ on what is "basic" or "advanced". :-) Regards, Andy Andy Raibeck IBM Software Group Tivoli Storage Manager Client Development Internal Notes e-mail: Andrew Raibeck/Tucson/[EMAIL PROTECTED] Internet e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] The only dumb question is the one that goes unasked.
