stdlib (carefully, if you're
trying to manage multi-line content such as a server stanza) to manage a
subset of the content of the dsm.sys file.
You could also look at the concat module to generate the dsm.sys file from
component files, as long as you manage all the components in Puppet as well
I don't know that this approach would work - Puppet would see that the file
differs from the deployed file, and would just overwrite it the next time
the agent runs. Puppet would need to manage dsm.sys completely[1] with
Rick's desired changes, or those options would have to be taken out

The m4 macro processor is a standard unix offering and can do anything from
simple includes and variable substitutions to lisp-like processing that will
boggle your mind. An m4 macro with some include files and a makefile with a
cron job to build your dsm.sys might do the job.

Hi Rick,
I'm not aware of a mechanism that allows one to do that with dsmc/dsm.sys,
but Puppet does have the ability to include arbitrary lines in a file,
either via a template or directly in a rule definition.
Another option would be to use server-side client option sets:

Hello David,
I believe you can use the DSMI_DIR environment variable to specify the
location of the dsm.sys or opt files.

Hi,
I am becoming slightly less befuddled by Solaris zones and TSM, but I have a
question I'm betting is quite simple:
Does TSM only use which ever dsm.sys is visible (in the appropriate
directory) from the zone it's running in?
eg. a backup started from Zone1 will always reference
/export
The DSM.SYS is also configurable with multiple stanza for different
nodes/options and the DSM.OPT (on *NIX platforms) is used to select the
stanza.
For example, I have Domino servers on Solaris that have 6-server
instances. They require 3-different TSM nodes each (Logs, Incremental,

On UNIX systems, multiple users can log in under their own non-root

Options in dsm.opt are those that a non-root user can set.
Those in dsm.sys are the options that only root should set.

dsm.sys contains the system configuration, dsm.opt contains the

Hello, Srinivas.
Normally the root user administers the dsm.sys file, setting things like
connection and logging options in various stanzas available to everyone.
Each user can have its own dsm.opt, or even multiple dsm.opt's, defining

Use the 2 different opt files as mentioned before.
In those opt-files you refer to different TSM servers (at least different
settings)
So dsm.opt will state:
ServernameTSM_inclAll
and dsm2.opt will state

in dsm.sys you will then need two different server

Hi Dave,
Firstly, after you edit the dsm.sys shutdown or kill
the scheduler process.
You check it by using ps -ef | grep dsmc sched.
Then, start it up again such as this at the prompt :
