Any idea what script you are talking about?

Your original question, as quoted below, involved a Linux server, where a dsmserv.rc script was involved in starting the server, as mentioned in my posting, and as discussed on pages 440-441 of the TSM 5.3 Linux Admin Guide manual under Chapter 17 Managing Server Operations, topic "Starting the Server".
Every platform is different, and for the TSM server, more different than for the TSM client; hence a separate set of manuals for TSM server platforms. See the TSM Solaris Admin Guide, same chapter, same topic. The Solaris start has a different orientation, and that manual does not explicitly mention a start script, but Linux's starting regimen derives from the Solaris approach, so see if the dsmserv.rc in your Solaris server directory has anything. In any case, follow the manual, which says "To start the server from the Sun Solaris window prompt, change to the /opt/tivoli/tsm/server directory, and enter the following command: ./dsmserv ". This is all a matter of understanding your OS environment and then following the TSM doc.

Without details on how the non-standard start was attempted or the errors encountered, I can only generally advise... In AIX, at least, the rc.adsmserv start-up script supplied in the server directory performs a cd to the server directory before invoking the dsmserv module, for the simple reason that many of the resources needed for server execution reside there, most obviously the licenses file and the national languages messages repository. I believe that the Linux TSM server start-up script is called dsmserv.rc, and would expect it to also include a cd to its server directory. Also available to the customer are the DSMSERV_DIR and DSMSERV_CONFIG environment variables, mostly used for an alternate server, as documented in the Admin Guide manual.

Hi,
Does anyone have ideas about the reasons for non - starting of TSM server from default prompt, even after defining the same in path of the server?
Facing this problem in Linux and TSM version is 5.3.3, but it can be started from installation directory.
Another problem is configuration of history in TSM server, as I have to retype the commands again and again in the same login session.
