Hi Andy! Thank you very much for your reply! Bummer... This requires me to alter (add the stanza) the dsm.sys which was something I wanted to prevent for an occasional restore... I didn't see this listed in the APAR, but that parameter also seems to be incorrectly documented then, right? Kindest regards, Eric van Loon

Hi Eric, Nope, -tcpserveraddress is also not valid from the command line. Instead, use the -SERVERNAME option, which refers to a stanza in dsm.sys that identifies the TSM server.
