Hi Mario,
   just another URL, which shows propper examples for the usage
of
        VIRTUALMountpoint
and
        environment-variables

http://oit.wvu.edu/systems/files/tsm/4.1/sun/afsc/ansf0010.htm#HDRFILESP

In this case related to backup directories residing in AFS.

Hi Howard,

Sure. Thought about that...it is just a test for now, but when going into production I´ll do that.

Thanks
Mario

It should if the virtualm exists when the dsmc command is run, but
you're going to have one of the longest dsm.sys files after a while. You may want to include something in your script that deletes previous virtual mount point entries so that doesn't happen.

Subject: [ADSM-L] altering dsm.sys right before dsmc

Hi all,

I have to configure a virtualmountpoint option before some backups. The
directory name, part of it, is formed by a date...and I will have to
append this
line in the dsm.sys file everytime I perform this particular backup.

Here is the script...the TSM Clent is Red Hat...

export ARCHLOG=`date +%d%m%y_backuptape.log`
export DATA=`date --date='1 day ago' +%d%m%y2200`

echo virtualm=/backup/rman/full/$DATA >>
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsm.sys
/opt/tivoli/tsm/client/ba/bin/dsmc i -subdir=yes
-domain="/backup/rman/full/$DATA/*" >> /backup/tsmlogs/$ARCHLOG



....my question is, is it going to work? I mean, can I actually alter
the
dsm.sys file and then run the dsmc command immediately after doing
it?....usually, dsm always checks filespaces before sendin data to the
TSM
Server.


Regards,
Mario
